Description
Before submitting
- I searched existing issues and did not find a duplicate.
- I included enough detail to reproduce or investigate the problem.
Area
apps/desktop
Steps to reproduce
- Open a Git repository in T3 Code using the Codex provider.
- Start a thread with tool approvals enabled.
- Ask Codex to perform a task that creates and then deletes or modifies a temporary file. In my case, it created /private/tmp/velos-unassigned-alert-issue.md to submit a GitHub issue, then attempted to remove it.
- Wait for the file-change approval prompt.
- Observe that the approval panel says “File-change approval requested”, but does not show the filename, path, diff, or any description of the requested change.
Expected behavior
The requested command should be displayed underneath the "PENDING APPROVAL" heading
Actual behavior
no command is displayed
Impact
Major degradation or frequent failure

Research direction
Start in apps/desktop by tracing the file-change approval prompt from the Codex approval request to the panel rendered under "PENDING APPROVAL". Reproduce the steps with a temporary file and verify that the requested command, filename or path, and change details are displayed in the approval panel.
