Problem Statement

When context is compressed, attached images are replaced with [Image #N] placeholders. Since the original file path is known at the time of attachment, it would be helpful to include it in the placeholder (e.g. [Image #N: D:\Pictures\screenshot.png]) so the user can re-attach the correct file.

Proposed Solution

When an image is attached to a prompt and later dropped during context compression, the placeholder should include the original file path, e.g.:

[Image #N: D:\Pictures\screenshot.png]

This way the user knows exactly which file to re-attach without guessing.
