The client-side parse() helper in processSlashCommand.ts used the regex /^\/([^\s]+)(.*)/ without the dotall flag. Because (.*) stops at \n by default, any text typed after a Shift+Enter in the composer was silently dropped before it reached the command handler. Fix: add the /s (dotall) flag so (.*) matches across newlines. The server-side parser (apps/meteor/lib/utils/parseParameters.ts) already handles multi-line params correctly; this change makes the client-side path consistent with it. Closes: RocketChat#41324

Learning: In this repository (RocketChat/Rocket.Chat), Biome lint rules are not used even if a biome.json exists. When reviewing TypeScript files (e.g., packages/ui-voip/src/providers/useMediaSession.ts), ensure lint suggestions do not reference Biome-specific rules. Rely on general ESLint/TypeScript lint rules and project conventions instead.

Learning: In the Rocket.Chat repository, do not reference Biome lint rules in code review feedback. Biome is not used even if biome.json exists; only reference Biome rules if there is explicit, project-wide usage documented. For TypeScript files, review lint implications without Biome guidance unless the project enables Biome rules.

- Replace params.trim() with params.trimStart() in Msg slash command callback - Add unit regression tests for LF and CRLF trailing blank lines
|
In apps/meteor/server/slashcommands/msg/server.ts, params.trim() has been updated to params.trimStart() so only leading whitespace before the command parameters is normalized, while trailing whitespace and intentional blank lines in the message body are preserved. We also added unit regression tests in apps/meteor/tests/unit/server/slashcommands/msg.tests.ts covering trailing blank lines for both LF and CRLF formats. All test suites (msg.tests.ts, processSlashCommand.spec.ts, and parseParameters.tests.ts) pass cleanly. |

The client-side parse() helper in processSlashCommand.ts used the regex /^/([^\s]+)(.)/ without the dotall flag. Because (.) stops at \n by default, any text typed after a Shift+Enter in the composer was silently dropped before it reached the command handler.
Fix: add the /s (dotall) flag so (.*) matches across newlines.
The server-side parser (apps/meteor/lib/utils/parseParameters.ts) already handles multi-line params correctly; this change makes the client-side path consistent with it.
