Description

For /newTask I wrote a 1015 character description (I pasted it). Earlier today it just ignored the text and based its design off the short title for the track and interview questions. Now when I try it, it repeatedly rephrases to tell me not to paste a ‘large block of text’ or write a ‘shorter summary’. Is there a way to specify what you want in more detail? gemini-cli 0.33.1, plan mode off.

Research direction

Start by reproducing /newTask with the reported 1,015-character description using gemini-cli 0.33.1, comparing it with a shorter description. Trace the command's handling of long text and determine whether the completed behavior should preserve the full description without asking for a shorter summary.
