Subject: [PATCH] feat: include full date with day of week in system prompt
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Fixes #2108

The system prompt now includes the full current date and time
(e.g., 'Current: Monday, January 5th, 2026 — 3:26 PM') in addition
to the timezone. This prevents the agent from incorrectly guessing
the day of week.
