Description
### Describe the bug
For many prompts that result in new files being created, the harness first tries to read the still nonexistent files (probably as a safety measure); but instead of that being a hidden/silent operation, the terminal output shows "Read" errors, which makes it seem like the CLI has bugs even though it's expected behavior.
### Affected version
GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.28
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
1. Run prompts/flows that create new files ('/openspec-propose' is the one I used this time)
2. See the "Read" errors in the terminal output.
### Expected behavior
No "Read" error should appear.
