/**
 * Telling a slash command from a file path, and showing a pasted path compactly.

 * an absolute path begins with `/` too. Treating them alike meant that pasting an image path and
 * asking a question about it produced "Unknown command: /home/kona/Pictures/yah.png" and the
 * request was never run at all.

 * Whether the first word of a prompt is a slash command rather than a path.

 * in it, or a dot, or both. That single distinction settles every real case — `/config model x` is
 * a command, `/home/kona/Pictures/yah.png fix this` is not — without needing a list of commands to
 * check against, which would misread a typo as a path and send it to the model.
