What issue are you seeing?
In the Codex app, when using Chat mode instead of Coding mode, the clock/time widget renders almost completely black. The text and most clock elements have extremely low contrast and are barely visible.
Steps to reproduce
- Open the Codex app in Chat mode.
- Ask for the current time so the clock widget appears.
- The widget is nearly solid black and unreadable.
Expected behavior
The clock widget should be readable in the current light theme.
Platform: macOS
