Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.72-0: begin a prompt with /btw and paste an image, then compare it with pasting an image before adding /btw. Trace the /btw input handling and clipboard-image path; done means an image pasted after /btw is accepted in the discussion.
