Research direction

No source file or test is identified in the report. Start by reproducing the failure in PowerShell with Copilot CLI v1.0.34 using the prompt "hola", then trace the transient_bad_request response and compare it with a working chat request. Done means normal chat works without repeated retries or a CAPIError 400.
