What issue are you seeing?

##Observed:
Reproducible before fix commit 80791c2 (authored on February 18, 2026)

##Summary:
When a prompt contains a scoped npm package with a version suffix (example: @kaeawc/auto-mobile@latest), the composer incorrectly activates @ file-search behavior instead of treating the token as plain text.

Actual Result:

TUI freezes and Enter does not behave like a normal submit for that prompt.

Impact:

Users pasting common npm commands with scoped packages can’t reliably submit prompts, which interrupts normal chat flow.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

1. Open Codex TUI and focus the chat composer.
2. Type: npx -y @kaeawc/auto-mobile@latest
3. Press Enter.

What is the expected behavior?

Prompt is submitted as typed.

Additional information

Likely Root Cause:

Mention parsing accepts @-prefixed tokens even when the remainder includes a second @ (package version syntax), causing false-positive mention detection.

Additional context:

I did fix this on my own branch via codex 5.3

The fix seemed reasonably small
