Ask without context enhancement #1138

Nothing high priority, but I often find that I'd like to do a basic llm query in aider where I'm already working, but the /ask command has a lot of input tokens from the files and repo that I don't need for the request. I naively imagine /justask to query the LLM with no extra overhead.

What do others do to ask quick questions that don't need context? I prefer to use API rather than monthly subscription.

I've encountered this need before. Not important. I typically switch tabs to a web llm chat for that. But could be a neat feature.
