Summary

When application description is empty, the system automatically uses the prompt as description via desc_or_prompt property. This caused issues when prompts exceeded 400 characters, preventing users from modifying application names due to description length validation.

Changes:

  • Truncate pre_prompt to 200 characters when used as description
  • Add ellipsis ("...") to indicate truncation
  • Ensure auto-populated description stays well within 400-char limit

Fixes the issue where Agent/Chatbot applications with long prompts could not be renamed after creation.
