Research direction

Start by reproducing the resume-conversation crash with Codex CLI 0.147.0 on macOS arm64, using the supplied doctor report and inspecting the state, thread-history, and rollout data paths it lists. No repository file, test, error, or expected behavior is named, so the target entry point and definition of done remain unclear.
