Description
What version of Kimi Code CLI is running?
kimi, version 1.36.0
Which open platform/subscription were you using?
none
Which model were you using?
kimi-k2.5
What platform is your computer?
Darwin 25.2.0 arm64 arm
What issue are you seeing?
When pasting long text into the CLI, the input is not processed correctly.
Instead of expanding the pasted content, the terminal displays it as [Pasted X chars] even after pressing Enter — meaning the actual text is never sent to the model.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Open Kimi CLI
- When prompted for input, paste a large block of text (500+ characters)
- Press Enter
What is the expected behavior?
Full pasted content is submitted as input

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Kimi Code CLI 1.36.0 on macOS by pasting more than 500 characters at the input prompt and pressing Enter. Trace the CLI's pasted-input handling to find why [Pasted X chars] is submitted instead of the full text; done means the complete pasted content reaches the model.
