Summary
When attached to a remote Copilot CLI session from the GitHub mobile app, there is no way to send slash commands (e.g. /compact, /cd, /skills, /help). Plain text input works, but / commands either aren't recognized, aren't routed, or the UI lacks a way to invoke them.
Expected
Slash commands typed in the mobile remote-session text input should be routed to the session exactly as they would be from the desktop CLI. Bonus: a tappable command palette / picker for the common slash commands, since mobile keyboards make typing / and discovering command names painful.

Why this matters
A remote session that can't accept slash commands is significantly less useful — you can't compact context, change directories, browse plugins, or even open help from your phone.
