Amazing that these tools don't maintain a replayable log of everything they've done.
Although git revert is not a destructive operation, so it's surprising that it caused any loss of data. Maybe they meant git reset --hard or something like that. Wild if Codec would run that.
I was looking at the insanity known as Gas Town [0] the other day, and it does use Git to store historical work state in something it calls "beads":

If anyone is curious, Beads is an agent memory project from the same developer: https://github.com/steveyegge/beads
Bees?
BEADS
I have had codex recover things for me from its history after claude had done a git reset hard, codex is one of the more reliable models/harneses when it comes to performing undo and redo operations in my experience.
Claude Code has had this feature for a few months now.
Claude Code has /rewind. Not sure if it is foolproof, but this has been tried.
I found this tool to be the solution I was looking for to address this specific problem:
