Research direction

Start at internal/tui3/connect.go:1015-1036, which contains the Codex waiting card, and reproduce the issue with /connect in a wide terminal showing the Tasks column. Check the card's link row against the transcript width. Done means the sign-in URL wraps inside the transcript and the Tasks column border remains intact in the e2e scenario.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

area:chat bug sev:papercut

Seen on: dev 837b2b0.

Behaviour

The waiting in your browser… card for Codex prints the long auth.openai.com URL wrapped at full width, over the │ border of the Tasks column. The link should wrap inside the transcript width.

Replication

  1. Build dev 837b2b0 (git checkout 837b2b0 && make build, binary bin/codeaf), or install the dev build with curl -fsSL https://agentfield.ai/get/devaf | bash.
  2. Use an isolated profile: export HOME=$(mktemp -d), export OPENROUTER_API_KEY, and keep the default model (~deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-latest, crew on auto).
  3. On a busy machine set task.max_load to 0 (/settings, Tasks) so the busy-machine gate does not hold tasks.
  4. codeaf in a window at least 160 columns wide with the Tasks column shown, /connect, choose Codex, enter.

Evidence

  • Screen: the auth URL runs over the Tasks column border.
  • internal/tui3/connect.go:1015-1036 (the waiting card).

Guessed cause

A guess from reading the code, not a confirmed diagnosis. The card's link row is not wrapped to the transcript width.

Acceptance

  • e2e: the sign-in link wraps inside the transcript, and the Tasks column border is intact.

Found while writing the public docs; manual text differences are in #1545.
