VS Code: Account-Linked Cross-Device Session Sync #12593

Description

@darioringach

What variant of Codex are you using?

IDE Extension

What feature would you like to see?

I’d like to suggest adding an option for account-linked, cross-device session synchronization in the Codex VS Code extension. Specifically, it would be extremely valuable if chat history, editing context, and reasoning state could be securely persisted in the cloud and tied to a user’s OpenAI account rather than stored only locally. This would allow developers to seamlessly resume a Codex session on another machine (e.g., laptop, desktop, or remote environment) and maintain full conversational and architectural continuity within the same repository. Ideally, this would integrate natively into VS Code, automatically offering to resume synced sessions per workspace while still allowing users to opt out for privacy-sensitive projects. Such a feature would significantly improve multi-device workflows and align Codex with modern cloud-synced development practices.
