Why can’t my AI assistant search across my existing Codex projects and chats?

A user is seeking a way for their AI assistant to search across existing Codex projects and chat threads. They want the assistant to act as a coordinator, finding relevant threads, checking progress, continuing discussions, and reporting back. The user currently has to manually provide links and re-explain information, even for details like email accounts configured in other threads. They desire a searchable index of authorized chats, project decisions, integrations, and task statuses, with links to sources, to avoid scattered context and duplicate threads as their business grows.

This user's experience highlights a current limitation in AI assistants, where cross-project search and coordination are not yet seamless, unlike the more integrated experience users desire.
