Problem

Currently, when the Continue extension provides suggestions that involve creating a new file or editing an existing one, users have to manually create the file or navigate to it to apply the changes. This can be time-consuming and disrupts the workflow.

Proposed Solution: The extension should automatically create or edit files when applying suggestions. For example:

• If a suggestion involves creating a new file, the extension should create the file and apply the changes.
• If a suggestion involves editing an existing file, the extension should open the file (if not already open) and apply the changes.

Benefits:

• Improved productivity by reducing manual steps.
• Seamless integration into the development workflow.

Additional Context: This feature would be particularly useful when working with large projects or when the extension suggests multiple file changes at once.
