Codebase context can no longer set the number of files to include, and it's really frustrating!

Hey, just noticed a change in the recent updates. When you pick @codebase to chat with a model, there’s no option anymore to choose how many files should be included in the context. It always picks around 25 files, which is way too small and causes wrong answers. It even refers to code or methods that don’t exist! :grimacing:

Can you please bring this feature back? Sometimes we need up to 400 or even 1200 files in the context for accurate responses. Not sure if anyone else has used this feature, but if you agree, let’s show some support. This was one of the best parts of Cursor that made it way better than other tools! :+1:

as a workaround I’ve downgraded to 42.5 from here: 0.42.5 Build Links until Cursor team find and fix this critical feature

Ok - where is the codebase context config? I’m on 0.42.5 also, but having the same limited codebase context challenge
