Automation empty state layout overlaps in Chinese locale

Summary

In the Codex macOS desktop app, the Automation page empty state layout appears misaligned in Chinese. The large clock illustration overlaps the empty-state title and template buttons, and the top-right primary CTA is clipped by the right edge of the window.

Environment

  • App: Codex desktop app
  • Version: 26.601.21317 (build 3511)
  • OS: macOS 15.7.4 (24G517)
  • Locale/UI language: Chinese
  • Screenshot dimensions from reporter: 1552 x 1194

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Codex desktop app.
  2. Navigate to the Automation page with no automations created.
  3. Use Chinese UI text / locale.
  4. Observe the empty state and top-right CTA area.

Actual behavior

  • The empty-state clock illustration is oversized or positioned too low, overlapping:
  • 创建首个自动化
  • template buttons such as 每日简报, 每周回顾, 项目监控
  • The top-right 通过聊天创建 button is partially clipped by the viewport edge.

Expected behavior

  • The empty-state illustration should not overlap text or template buttons.
  • The top-right action buttons should wrap, shrink, or remain within the visible viewport.
  • The page should adapt correctly to Chinese copy length and smaller window widths/heights.

Notes

This looks like a responsive layout issue in the Automation empty state, likely related to fixed illustration sizing/positioning and Chinese CTA text width.
