 > hi can you ouput an echo command?

 ✓ Output echo command
   $ echo "Hello, World!"
   ↪ 1 line...

 ✗ read_powershell
   Invalid session ID: main. Please supply a valid session ID to read output from.

 ✓ Output echo command
   $ echo "Hello, World!"
   ↪ 1 line...

 ✗ read_powershell
   Invalid session ID: echo-session. Please supply a valid session ID to read output from.

 ✓ Output echo command
   $ Write-Output "Hello, World!"
   ↪ 1 line...

 ✓ stop_powershell
   ↪ 1 line...

 ● Here's an echo command for you:

     echo "Hello, World!"

   Or using PowerShell's native cmdlet:

     Write-Output "Hello, World!"

I have tried many different commands but always ends up with the:
Invalid session ID: [SOMETHING]. Please supply a valid session ID to read output from.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

No response

Expected behavior

I expect it to be able to run the commands, just like I could do myself in the terminal:

PowerShell 7.5.3
Warning: PowerShell detected that you might be using a screen reader and has disabled PSReadLine for compatibility purposes. If you want to re-enable it, run 'Import-Module PSReadLine'.

PS C:\Users\micro> echo "Hello, World!"
Hello, World!
PS C:\Users\micro> Write-Output "Hello, World!"
Hello, World!
PS C:\Users\micro>

Additional context

I am using W11's new Terminal app

PS C:\Users\micro> pwsh --version
PowerShell 7.5.3
PS C:\Users\micro> node --version
v22.20.0
PS C:\Users\micro> npm --version
10.0.0
PS C:\Users\micro> copilot --version
0.0.344

Please let me know if any other information is required,

@VapidLinus I am unable to repro this on the latest v0.0.346. Any additional details you can provide? What model are you using?

Can you try this on the latest CLI version (npm upgrade -g @copilot/cli) and let me know if you're seeing the same results?

 ● Folder C:\Users\....

 > hi can you output an echo command?
