Descripción

### Describe the bug

_No response_

### Affected version

GitHub Copilot CLI v1.0.40

### Steps to reproduce the behavior

Steps to reproduce:

1. Ask Copilot CLI: "Generate a random 264-character base64 string and print it back"
OR paste a known string: eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsIng1dCI6IlUxc1g4WUZIUzdaNlZsN1ZITEl6VGVqYnZqMCIsImtpZCI6IlUxc1g4WUZIUzdaNlZsN1ZITEl6VGVqYnZqMCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ0ZXN0LXVzZXIiLCJhdWQiOiJo
dHRwczovL2V4YW1wbGUuY29tLyIsImV4cCI6OTk5OTk5OTk5OX0.AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
2. Copy generated string and paste back to copilot
3. Ask to count length
4. Compare: original=264, returned=265

### Expected behavior

String returned unchanged, length = 264

### Additional context

OS: macOS
- Terminal: Terminal.app (confirmed: no tmux, echo $TMUX is empty)
- Shell: zsh
- CPU: Apple Silicon (ARM)
- The bug caused a real-world debugging loop: identical JWT Bearer token
worked in Postman (200 OK) but failed when pasted through Copilot CLI
chat (401 Unauthorized) because \n was silently inserted into the token,
corrupting the Authorization header.
- Workaround: save token to file via pbpaste > /tmp/token.txt and
read with $(cat /tmp/token.txt) instead of pasting through chat.
