### Describe the Bug

Certain models will not show the actual lines of code in your file when requested. Because of this, when in auto mode, the model will recommend a change but not render the code block.

### Steps to Reproduce

Put models in auto mode  
Ask model to repeat a line of code  
See it not repeat line of code

Models that did produce lines of code: o3, 3.5 Sonnet, 4 Sonnet, 4 thinking  
Models that didn’t: every other one

### Expected Behavior

It should definitely render code recommendations
