What's Wrong?

If when presented with a multiple choice question by Claude, I choose "Other" and write a comprehensive response, I can't see that response in the chat retrospectively like I would a normally submitted response. It is not obvious how to see it if that is possible.

What Should Happen?

It should show submitted responses to "Other" in multiple choice as it shows my other prompts in the chat

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

Type a lengthy response to "Other" when asked a multiple choice question by Claude and see if you can see it in the chat when looking back.
