描述
Describe the bug
The built-in view tool (shown as Read in the VS Code UI) reports File too large to read at once (8.6 KB) when asked to read a small, ordinary multiline Markdown file. This appears to be a false-positive size warning and makes normal full-file inspection unnecessarily cumbersome.
This is not the large single-line JSON or custom-tool-output case. The file is a regular Markdown document and is approximately 8.6 KB.
Affected version
Unknown - encountered in the Copilot CLI runtime integrated with VS Code.
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- Use the Copilot CLI runtime in VS Code on Windows.
- Ask the agent to read a normal multiline Markdown file of approximately 8.6 KB.
- Allow the built-in
view/Readtool to read the file without specifying a range. - Observe the
File too large to read at once (8.6 KB)warning instead of the file contents.
Expected behavior
A normal file of this size should be read successfully in full. If a size threshold is required, the threshold should be consistent, documented, and should not report ordinary small files as too large without a clear reason.
Additional context
- OS: Windows 11
- Host: Visual Studio Code
- Tool: built-in
view/Read - File type: regular Markdown, approximately 8.6 KB
- The warning recommends using
view_range, even though the file is small enough that a full read would normally be expected. - This report is about the
viewtool's full-file size handling, not Azure DevOps or the repository being inspected.

研究方向
找出內建的 view/Read 實作和完整檔案大小檢查,然後在所述的 Windows 和 VS Code 設定中,使用一個約 8.6 KB 的多行 Markdown 檔案重現問題。追查這個正常檔案為何會被拒絕;完成的標準是檔案能完整讀取且不會出現誤報警告,同時真正過大的輸入或單行輸入仍得到適當處理。
