Description

Type: Bug

VS Code version: 1.134.0
OS: Windows 11 x64

When an agent completes a task, completion text longer than 500 characters is handled as tool output and offloaded to a temporary file. This makes user-facing completion details difficult to read.

Expected: completion text intended for the user should remain in the chat UI, or there should be a setting to control this behavior.
