Description

When trying to load a prompt with '/' command and the prompt md file has CRLF EOL sequence, the UI presents the entire file and loads as well when selected.

Changing the md file to LF EOL sequence fixes the problem.

To reproduce

helloworld.md

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a prompt.md file in your .continue/prompts folder, eg. .continue/prompts/helloworld.md.
2. Make sure end of line sequence is CRLF.
3. Reload Window
4. Type: '/' in your chat window and you should see that the helloworld.md file is shown, rather than the name chosen within the md file.

My helloworld.md test file (with CRLF):

---
name: HelloWorld
description: A simple prompt
invokable: true
---

Write "Hello World".

Hi, I've been looking into this and traced the root cause.

Proposed approach: Find the prompt .md file parser (likely in core/), locate where frontmatter is parsed by splitting on '---' delimiters and newlines. Add .replace(/\r/g, '') or .replaceAll('\r', '') to normalize CRLF to LF before parsing. The bug is that \r characters remain in parsed values when the file uses CRLF line endings, causing the prompt name/description to include invisible \r characters that break UI display.

I'll open a draft PR shortly. Happy to adjust based on your preference.
