# A steadier DinoAI copilot

> Fixes for the copilot going blank mid-answer, losing billed turns, looping on terminal commands, and one oversized file read filling its context.

*September 9, 2026*

A run of reported copilot problems turned out to share a small number of causes. All of them are fixed:

* **Blank stops.** On long reasoning turns the connection could be dropped without a word, leaving the panel empty while the work was discarded and still billed, and a follow-up prompt would bounce off the lock the dead turn still held. The copilot now keeps the connection alive through long turns, and a turn that does complete is always persisted before it is billed.
* **Lost background turns.** The same fault could lose an entire background agent turn after a long reasoning call, so a session finished with no output at all.
* **Terminal command loops.** Handing a terminal command back and forth between the copilot and the editor could leave the copilot repeating itself instead of moving on.
* **Failed edits.** `replace_in_file` crashed whenever the model's diff markers were not byte-exact, which was one call in six. It now handles inexact markers instead of erroring.
* **One read filling the context.** Reading a file in the copilot was unbounded, and a single generated artefact could take up most of a turn's context and push earlier work out. Reads are now capped the same way they are for [agents](/changelog/2026-09-03/dinoai-harness-v2), so a large file no longer costs you the rest of the conversation.

Shipped in Paradime v6.12.0.
