We're trying to migrate from `session_id: Uuid` to `conversation_id:
ConversationId`. Not only does this give us more type safety but it
unifies our terminology across Codex and with the implementation of
session resuming, a conversation (which can span multiple sessions) is
more appropriate.
I started this impl on https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/3219 as part
of getting resume working in the extension but it's big enough that it
should be broken out.
Adds a TUI resume flow with an interactive picker and quick resume.
- CLI:
- --resume / -r: open picker to resume a prior session
- --continue / -l: resume the most recent session (no picker)
- Behavior on resume: initial history is replayed, welcome banner
hidden, and the first redraw is suppressed to avoid flicker.
- Implementation:
- New tui/src/resume_picker.rs (paginated listing via
RolloutRecorder::list_conversations)
- App::run accepts ResumeSelection; resumes from disk when requested
- ChatWidget refactor with ChatWidgetInit and new_from_existing; replays
initial messages
- Tests: cover picker sorting/preview extraction and resumed-history
rendering.
- Docs: getting-started updated with flags and picker usage.

- Move rollout persistence and listing into a dedicated module:
rollout/{recorder,list}.
- Expose lightweight conversation listing that returns file paths plus
the first 5 JSONL records for preview.
