Cursor Agent CLI on Windows does not support pasting clipboard images. Expected: After taking a screenshot with Win+Shift+S, I should be able to paste it into the Cursor Agent CLI with Ctrl+V and have it attached as image context. Actual: Ctrl+V does not attach the image. The workaround is saving the screenshot to a file and referencing it with @path or drag-drop, which is much slower. Environment: Windows 11 / Windows Terminal / Cursor Agent CLI Request: Please add direct clipboard image paste support to Cursor Agent CLI, especially for screenshots copied with Win+Shift+S. ---
