Description
Summary
More Details can keep sending follow-up context into the same Quick Chat, but that continuity is lost after the Quick Chat is minimized/closed or after switching Codex conversation threads.
Repro
- In Codex, click
More Detailsto open a Quick Chat. - Click
More Detailsagain while that Quick Chat is still active — it continues in the same Chat. - Minimize/close the Quick Chat, or switch to another Codex thread.
- Click
More Detailsagain.
Actual
A new Quick Chat is created instead of continuing the previous one.
Expected
If this is not intentional, More Details should keep/recover the previous Quick Chat binding for that Codex thread.
Environment: Codex desktop on Windows.

Research direction
Start from the More Details action and the Quick Chat binding used for Codex threads. Reproduce the flow by minimizing or closing Quick Chat and switching threads, then trace how the previous binding is stored or recovered; done means follow-up More Details actions reuse the prior Quick Chat for the same thread.
