   This issue might be a duplicate of an existing issue. Please check:

   • [FEATURE]: Allow to expand the pasted text (e.g. [Pasted ~1 lines]) #8501: Very similar request — "Allow to expand the pasted text (e.g. [Pasted ~1 lines])" describes the same collapse/expand behavior for pasted content in the prompt input.

   Since you've already referenced #8501, please consider whether this issue adds new information not covered there. If so, it may be worth adding a comment to that issue instead, or clarifying the distinction here.

   This request is intentionally a bit different:

   • [FEATURE]: Allow to expand the pasted text (e.g. [Pasted ~1 lines]) #8501 focuses on expanding/reviewing pasted summary blocks in TUI/editor workflows.
   • This issue proposes a desktop/web prompt behavior to intentionally keep large pasted chunks collapsed by default (with optional per-block expand), so users can paste multiple large chunks without visual noise while still sending full content to the model.
   • This is also the opposite preference from [FEATURE]: Show full preview of pasted multi-line text in input box #14670 (show full pasted content), which is why a configurable setting seems like the best outcome.

   Implemented a desktop prototype + upstream PR for review: #15411

   Scope in PR:

   • collapse large pasted blocks in desktop input as [Pasted ~N lines]
   • preserve full pasted content for model submission
   • respect experimental.disable_paste_summary opt-out

   If maintainers prefer, this can be tuned further (thresholds, defaults, or per-block expand interaction).
