Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

1. open the Assistant Panel
2. Enter the command /project.
3. The output error: Cargo.toml note found is displayed and you can use it.

Q1. What functionality does the /project command provide? It was not mentioned in the official documentation.

Q2. I assume the error is caused by the absence of Cargo.toml, what steps do I need to take to use Cargo.toml? I am a newbie, so sorry for asking these questions.

I look forward to your answer.

I believe the /project slash command only works with Rust projects. It inserts information about the current project based on the Cargo.toml file, hence the error message you're seeing.

Thank you for your answer.
I was basically developing a web app using Next.js, TypeScript.

Then, of course, Cargo.toml doesn't exist.

It would be very useful if I could send Project metadata like aider!
We look forward to future updates.

Once again, thank you very much for your answer.
