Screen codex/busy-v0-163-0

A turn runs, 1.4 s after the Enter. The busy line "• Working (1s • esc to interrupt)" is directly above the box. The box, its placeholder and the footer "? for shortcuts" stay drawn, so the busy test must come before the idle test. Measured by the tg-bridge project with Codex CLI 0.163.0 (codex --no-daemon) in a private tmux server, and published in its report "Codex CLI and Cursor CLI as harnesses: measurements, 2026-10-24".
