Description

Hi,

Something about the annotation script breaks whenever you have a phoenix app with the live reload iframe loaded. You should be able to confirm this yourself by simply making a new Phoenix app, run it in dev mode, open it in the in-app browser in codex, and then attempt to annotate. You should see an error in the console and the annotate script doesn't run properly.

Research direction

Create a new Phoenix app, run it in development mode, open it in Codex's in-app browser, and reproduce annotation with the live reload iframe loaded. Start with the console error and the annotation script's handling of the iframe; done means annotation runs successfully without the console error.
