Summary
This change includes the user's current editor selection as context for all new chat messages by default. The selection context is added to the user context items when creating a new chat message.
To support this, the
getContextFileFromSelection
function is now imported and used inSimpleChatPanelProvider.ts
. If the chat message source is 'chat', the current selection context is retrieved and added to theuserContextFiles
array before resolving the context items.The selection context retrieval logic is also removed from
getPriorityContext
incontext.ts
since it is now handled inSimpleChatPanelProvider.ts
