Subject: [PATCH] fix(ui): unwrap pasted placeholders in slash commands (#235)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## What
Fix slash command execution so `[pasted #N]` placeholders are resolved
before calling `session.command`, matching normal prompt send behavior.

## Why
When pasting long text into a slash command (e.g. `/some-command [pasted
#1]`), the UI previously bypassed `resolvePastedPlaceholders(...)` for
known slash commands and sent the literal placeholder text as command
arguments.

## Changes
- Resolve pasted placeholders (and other prompt placeholders handled by
`resolvePastedPlaceholders`) in slash-command arguments before
`executeCustomCommand(...)`.
- Remove *consumed* pasted-text attachments (those referenced by
placeholders in the slash-command args) so they don’t linger for the
next prompt.

Fixes #234.

## Notes
- I attempted `npm run typecheck --workspace @codenomad/ui` locally but
the workspace dependencies aren’t installed in this bot environment, so
it fails with missing-module errors. CI should validate with a full
install.
