Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are mentioned. First reproduce the save failure with Windows 11, WSL configured as the agent workspace, and Codex App 26.903.61454, then collect the relevant error details and trace the project-save path. Done means a new project can be saved successfully in this configuration and a regression test covers the failure.
