Description

Thread ID: 01a02c65-2e1c-7110-8ce6-c3c4e4b481f0

Observed behavior:

  • An approved command completed and returned a large diff.
  • A subsequent request was canceled/interrupted.
  • A following read-only command returned no output.
  • The conversation then terminated with the interruption message.

Research direction

Start with the uploaded thread and feedback for thread ID 01a02c65-2e1c-7110-8ce6-c3c4e4b481f0, then trace the recovery/recon sequence involving the approved PowerShell command, the canceled request, and the no-output read-only command. Done means identifying why the conversation terminates and verifying that this sequence no longer produces the interruption message.
