What happened?
The edit tool requires that a file be "fully read" via read_file (without offset/limit) before any edit is allowed. However,
read_file truncates large files, making this precondition impossible to satisfy — creating a deadlock where edit never
works on large files.
What did you expect to happen?
- Have a file larger than read_file's default output limit (e.g. ai_views.py, 1416 lines)
2. Call read_file without offset/limit → output truncated at ~667 lines
3. Call edit on the same file → error: File has not been fully read in this session. Use the read_file tool first (without
offset / limit / pages) to load the entire current text content before editing it.
4. No workaround exists — you cannot satisfy the precondition
