Research direction

Start by reproducing logout in the Codex App on Windows, using feedback ID no-active-thread-01a04673-d91e-7212-9faa-6e7799ae0021. Inspect the logout and retry flow; it is done when logout completes without the generic error and the login option is presented without restarting the app.
