Codex only allows archiving tasks, but there is no way to permanently delete them

Hi team! Currently, Codex only allows archiving tasks, but there is no way to permanently delete them — even archived ones. Please consider adding a "Delete" option to help users keep their workspace clean and organized. Thanks a lot!

yes

[robin-peschl]

Please do not forget the “Delete all” button.
Of course so that you have to confirm it with your password.

Where is this located?

[GeminiSquishGames]

Agree! But then they can't scrape that data for training AI! I mean, they probably would just cache it anyway, but I was trying to reason why they'd forget such an obvious thing, lol.

You're right, having a "Delete" option would help users keep their workspace organized

codex anyway is lame for complex stuff vs gpt 5

[GeminiSquishGames]

I'm guessing it's better with copilot? I haven't tried since gpt-4 and it doesn't seem to create resources in an engine like Godot 4.4 like Codex does. I haven't tried with Unity yet, but Codex emulates most of what the Godot editor can do, it's just a bit rough around the edges and needs very explicit instructions if you are looking for something specific. Define complex stuff. I'm interested in your use case. It could be useful to know how better to use GPT-5.

Still, the "delete" option isn't available!
