<li>CLI: read Codex CLI account_id for workspace billing. (#1422) Thanks @aj47.</li>
<li>Logs/Status: align rolling log filenames with local time and report sandboxed runtime in <code>clawdbot status</code>. (#1343)</li>

<li>Tools: return a companion-app-required message when <code>system.run</code> is requested without a supporting node.</li>

<li>Windows: install gateway scheduled task as the current user.</li>
<li>Windows: show friendly guidance instead of failing on access denied.</li>
<li>macOS: load menu session previews asynchronously so items populate while the menu is open.</li>
<li>macOS: use label colors for session preview text so previews render in menu subviews.</li>
