Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
Currently, when files are opened/selected in VS Code, they automatically appear as context in Copilot CLI (shown as @filename). However, there's no way to remove individual files from context
Proposed solution
Requested feature:
- Add a close/remove button (X) next to each @filename tag in CLI
- OR add a command like /remove-context or /deselect
- OR add ability to click the @filename tag to toggle it off
Use case:
When working on a project, I may accidentally select unrelated files in
VS Code, which then consume context memory unnecessarily. I want to remove
these without losing my entire conversation history.
This would provide feature parity with the VS Code extension and give users
better control over their context window usage.
