Description
Environment
- Codex Desktop:
26.721.11231.0 - Platform: Windows
- Observed: 2026-07-31
Summary
During a normal edit/retry flow, Desktop emitted:
thread/rollback is deprecated and will be removed soon
The same operation then completed successfully:
method=thread/rollback,errorCode=null- followed by
method=turn/start,errorCode=null
Expected behavior
Desktop should use a supported current primitive and produce no deprecation warning during a successful user flow.
Actual impact
The operation succeeds, but the error-style warning makes a successful action look unsupported or unstable.
Suggested correction
Replace the Desktop call with the supported current method, or migrate the edit/retry flow before removing the deprecated endpoint. Add a regression test asserting that a successful retry emits no deprecated-method warning.
Version scope
This report is confirmed for Desktop 26.721.11231.0. I did not re-exercise a state-changing retry solely to reproduce the warning on the current build, so I am not claiming that newer versions are affected.
No account identifiers, task IDs, private content, local paths, or raw unrelated logs are included. No configuration or binary workaround was applied.

Research direction
Start by tracing the Desktop edit/retry flow around the deprecated thread/rollback call and the subsequent turn/start call. Identify the supported current primitive, then add a regression test for a successful retry. Done means the flow succeeds without emitting a deprecated-method warning.
