Threadbox for Codex

Open the official Codex sidebar and expand Threadbox to organize tasks into host-local projects. The view supports live metadata search, project creation, drag-and-drop assignment, creating a project while moving tasks, multi-select archive/pin/delete actions, working-directory access, and collapsible spawned tasks. Set threadbox.sidebarLocation to standalone to restore a separate Activity Bar container; Threadbox also falls back there when a compatible Codex sidebar is unavailable. Select Open Threadbox Manager, or run Threadbox: Open Manager, for the full table and advanced filters.

The extension runs in the workspace extension host, so Remote SSH, Dev Containers, and Codespaces manage the remote host's Codex tasks. It does not read full transcripts, repair desktop Recents, delete working directories, call a model, upload data, or collect telemetry.

Threadbox projects are stored in the extension host's VS Code global storage. They do not change official Codex project assignments and do not automatically sync between servers. A local Threadbox assignment can temporarily override an official project in the Threadbox UI; removing it restores the official grouping.

Codex CLI 0.149.0 or newer is required. Configure threadbox.codexBinary or threadbox.codexHome when the remote CLI does not use the default environment.
