Description
Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
When the CLI agent asks a question via its interactive "Question" prompt UI, and you use the freeform text answer (either a no-choices question, or selecting "Other (type your answer)" on a multiple-choice question), the resulting input box does not accept pasting of screenshots
Proposed solution
If Copilot is going to use the freeform answer to ask me a question, i need the ability to paste a screen shot just like i would if i was answering Copilot normally

Research direction
Start by tracing the CLI agent's interactive Question prompt UI and its freeform text input handling. Compare it with the existing input path used when answering Copilot normally, then verify the behavior for both no-choice questions and the “Other (type your answer)” flow. Done means screenshots can be pasted in both freeform cases.
