Description

The cursor always moves back into the text area after a response has been completed even if the user started doing something else, like in the editor or the terminal.

Additionally, when launching the VSCode app with Continue visible in the Side Bar, the text area gains focus once VSCode has been fully loaded.

The change came with: 8087465 (gui/src/components/mainInput/TipTapEditor.tsx)

---

Intended behavior:
As long as the user hasn't shifted their focus, keep the cursor focus in the text area; otherwise, do not.

To reproduce

1. Enter something in the continue GUI, for example hi
2. Press ⏎ Enter and move your cursor to the terminal.
3. Notice that when the LLM finished its response, your focus is no longer in the terminal. It has shifted back into the text area.

Log output

No response
