Description
What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?
26.810.7004.0
What subscription do you have?
PRO
What platform is your computer?
Windows x64
What issue are you seeing?
After updating Codex for Windows to version 26.810.7004.0, Activity View no longer shows the colored project icon and project name under each task.
Tasks from different projects now look almost identical, making it difficult to understand which project each task belongs to.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Create or open tasks in several different projects with different colored icons .
Open Activity View.
Compare the current view with the previous version.
Notice that project names and colored project icons are no longer displayed next to the tasks.
What is the expected behavior?
Activity View should display the colored project icon and project name for every task, as it did previously.
Alternatively, please add a setting that allows users to enable project names and colored project icons in Activity View.
Additional information
When working with 20–30 projects, Activity View is the only practical way to see what is happening across all projects and quickly understand where each task belongs.
Without the colored project icon and project name, Activity View becomes just a wall of text. It is almost impossible to identify which project a task belongs to at a glance.
Please restore this feature or at least provide a setting to enable project names and colored project icons. Visually, this was a lifesaver.

Research direction
Reproduce the regression in Activity View on Windows x64 with tasks from several projects, using version 26.810.7004.0 and the reported screenshots as reference. Locate the Activity View implementation and trace how each task's project metadata is rendered. Done means each task again shows its project name and colored icon, or an explicit setting provides equivalent visibility.
