What

If a pasted block is no longer available when you submit, it is now removed from the prompt and you get a notice saying so, instead of a literal placeholder being sent to the model.

Details
  • The old placeholder text "[Pasted text #N — content no longer available]" has been removed.
  • Pastes flagged as unavailable are excised from both the shortened and fully expanded prompt.
  • The notice is built from "is no longer available and was removed from the prompt", with a plural form "are no longer available and were removed from the prompt", and labels the item either "Pasted text" or "Truncated text".
Evidence

is no longer available and was removed from the prompt

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
