Hey, thanks for the report.
Try this workaround: after you move the chat into a new window, reload that window. Ctrl+Shift+P > Developer: Reload Window. This should fix focus and keyboard issues.
If you’re using two monitors, there’s a better option: the new Agent panel. You can open it with Ctrl+E or the Agents button in the top-left corner. It’s more stable than the separate window mode.

About vim shortcuts in chat: that’s a separate feature request. They aren’t supported in chat right now.
Let me know if the reload helps.
