hello,
if there are not any content in the chat, when I click the backspace button, the current file context is deleted too, how can I add the current file context back? so it can reference the current file automatically

hi, try pressing cmd + r to reset the chat and bring back the current file. note this will also reset the text and any other context you’ve added.
alternatively you can also switch active editors to bring back the current file context. hope this helps!
totally agree. very frustrated.
One more way to bring back any deleted context is using CMD+Z to effectively undo the deletion.
Having said that, we are discussing this feedback with the team. I can’t promise we’ll remove this behavior entirely, but we are discussing it.

I agree that pressing backspace in an empty chat can be inconvenient. However, I believe the bigger issue is that when backspace is pressed and the text disappears, the input box loses focus, requiring me to click it again to continue typing. I hope this aspect can be addressed seriously.

I’m glad that this version has resolved not only that issue but also the issue where all line feeds were being shown as changes. Thank you for the quick resolution.
