Description
### Checks
- [x] I have searched [github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues](https://github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues?q=) and there are no duplicates of my issue
- [x] I have run `q doctor` in the affected terminal session
- [x] I have run `q restart` and replicated the issue again
### Operating system
macOS 15.4.1 (24E263)
### Expected behaviour
Q chat should properly display file contents regardless of whether they contain authentication tokens or similar patterns like `auth?token=`.
### Actual behaviour
When asking Q chat to read and print a file that contains strings like `auth?token=`, it doesn't print anything and hangs instead of displaying the file content.
