since last week I'm not sure when this start to happen, but the codex start to make my laptop slow. whenever I bring mouse over the app to click on the chat, mouse trip, lag. it's constant. I believe there is some tracing mechanism that tracking mouse movement and it's causing the issue

Research direction

Start by reproducing the mouse lag in Codex App version 26.810.52044 on Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0 x64 using the reported side-panel and chatbox interactions. Trace the app's mouse interaction and suspected tracing paths, then verify that moving the mouse and switching focus no longer causes persistent lag.
