What issue are you seeing?

The Codex VS Code extension chat input does not appear to use native spell check.

It would be helpful if the chat textarea/input enabled spell checking, for example with spellcheck="true", so typos are caught before sending prompts.

This is especially useful for longer prompts, issue descriptions, and product/spec writing inside Codex.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

1. Open VS Code with the Codex extension installed and enabled.
2. Open the Codex chat panel / Codex sidebar.
3. Click into the Codex chat input box.
4. Type a sentence with an obvious spelling mistake, for example: “Please refactor this fucntion and explain the chnages.”
5. Observe that the misspelled words are not underlined or flagged by spell check.
6. For comparison, type the same sentence into a normal VS Code Markdown or text file where spell check is enabled.
7. Observe that spell check works in the editor file, but not in the Codex chat input box.

What is the expected behavior?
