Description

After upgrading to 1.1.17 today, I encountered the "no response was returned" error frequently. GPT 5.6 Sol model.

Copilot couldn't respond because MCP servers, tools, and instructions are using too much context. Run /context to review
context usage and disable anything you don't need.
No response was returned. Send your message again to retry.

Research direction

Start at the /chat path and reproduce the "no response was returned" error on Windows 10 with app version 1.1.17 and the GPT 5.6 Sol model. Review /context and the configured MCP servers, tools, and instructions to determine whether context usage consistently triggers the failure. Done means the cause and reliable reproduction conditions are identified.
