深色主题下,文本被选中时,选中区域和文字颜色对比度过低,文字几乎无法辨认;同一内容在浅色主题下正常。请为深色主题调整 selection 的前景/背景色,确保 WCAG 可读性对比度,并优先跟随系统强调色。
复现:macOS,Codex 桌面端,深色主题;拖选聊天输入框或消息中的文字即可复现。

Research direction

Start by reproducing the selection contrast problem in the Codex desktop app on macOS with the dark theme, then locate the input-field and message selection styling. The work is done when selected text is clearly readable, meets WCAG contrast requirements, and preferably follows the system accent color.
