What issue are you seeing?

Uploaded thread: 019fffc7-b624-73f3-b25e-72939260e26f

When resuming codex, instead of a clean start I see error message

"Conversation interrupted - tell the model what to do differently. Something went wrong? Hit /feedback to report the issue."

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Uploaded thread: 019fffc7-b624-73f3-b25e-72939260e26f

What is the expected behavior?

A clean start-up of codex without an error reported.

Additional information

    - Thread ID: 019fffc7-b624-73f3-b25e-72939260e26f
    - Error: expected ordinal 298, got 297
    - Approximate time: 14 August 2026, 11:35–11:41

The payload names the resume flow, codex doctor --json, and rollout/state databases, but no source file or test. Start by reproducing the interruption on Windows with codex-cli 0.147.0, then inspect the rollout DB parity warning and related resume handling; done means the existing conversation resumes without reporting “Conversation interrupted”.
