Look at the example plugin. It teaches how to write Vanilla plugin and as a use case it shows how to achieve what you are looking for.

Thank you. but the entire summary does not appear.

What do you mean by the "entire summary"? The upper part of the screenshot shows a summary and the lower part shows a full post.

You took the information from a well documented example, so you should be able to solve that on your own...

Look at this row: https://github.com/vanilla/addons/blob/master/plugins/example/class.example.plugin.php#L174
You can configure the size of the summary. You could set that config value to 100000000

Or even better replace this part

            $discussionBody = htmlentities( // Restore HTML entities
                sliceString(
                    html_entity_decode( // Convert HTML entities to single characters before cutting
                        strip_tags(
                            $sender->EventArguments['Discussion']->Body
                        )
                    ),
                    $trimSize
                )
            );

with something like that

            $discussionBody = Gdn_Format::to(
                $sender->EventArguments['Discussion']->Body,
                $sender->EventArguments['Discussion']->Format
            );

It is important to use Vanillas formatter here!
