What
Renaming a session now resolves the name before applying it and reports a failure instead of silently setting an empty one.
Details
- One message covers a generated name when there is no conversation context to generate from.
- A separate message covers a user-supplied name that becomes empty once invisible characters are stripped, and repeats the usage line.
Evidence
That name is empty once invisible characters are removed. Usage: /rename <name>
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
