What steps can reproduce the bug?

The Codex CLI is no longer giving the model the correct full path. It only provides the filename. Before, it used to include the full path.

I’m on Windows with WSL, so it should provide Windows paths in the WSL format (/mnt/c/...). Previously, when the model received Windows-style paths like C:\..., it tried to access them as Linux paths and failed. I worked around that by telling it to use /mnt/....

Now, when I paste an image, the CLI doesn’t give the model the full path it needs to open the screenshot. This means I have to do extra steps just to make the model see a screenshot.

This needs to be fixed soon.

What is the expected behavior?
