Choosing a folder should select all its files. From my testing all but the most important tsx component file were selected.

Hi @robertpiosik, @folder tries to get the top most relevant files. Is the issue that it's not adding every single file to the context? Or is it that it should add the relevant tsx file but it's not?

robertpiosik commented 2 weeks ago

Hi, both.

I expect it to add all files from a given folder, including subfolders and excluding specific types of files, defined somewhere, like images. I can't imagine a reliable algo to estimate what is relevant and what is not.

Let's say you're developing a react component and have a few hooks. Your query is about something else but it is good for LLM to know about your other hooks to nicely follow your conventions. It can deduce for what kind of stuff you use separate hooks and for what not.
