Verbosity of copilot based cmds makes it unfriendly #101

Problem: To get a GitHub Copilot suggestion, I currently need to use:

gh copilot suggest "the suggestion I want" This command is too verbose, making it easier to just open the web and search directly.

Solution: Reduce the verbosity of the command to improve efficiency. For example:

gh cp suggest The above can be further reduced. This would greatly enhance usability and streamline the process.

General Rule: Applying this principle as a general rule of thumb across GitHub CLI commands could significantly improve user experience

Hi @SparshKhanna0001, have you tried using the aliases such that your example would be:

ghcs "the suggestion I want"

?
