Description

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

26.901.5003

What subscription do you have?

Plus

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0 x64

What issue are you seeing?

Windows, Codex 26.901.5003. Built-in and custom pets react to hover but clicks pass through. Refreshing the pet permits one drag, which immediately offsets it below the cursor. After release, clicks stop working again. Reproduces with one monitor, RTSS detection disabled, GPU acceleration disabled, and Windows text size at 100%, including after restarts.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Feedback ID: no-active-thread-01a0705f-3a16-7150-87cb-354e16af10dd

What is the expected behavior?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the pet hover, click, drag, and post-release behavior on Windows with the reported Codex version and feedback ID. No source file or test is identified in the issue, so locate the pet interaction and pointer-offset handling first. Done means pets accept clicks and dragging remains correctly aligned after release and refresh.
