Context filling up quickly
Type: Bug
I add 4 docs and wanted to update one doc based on inputs form two others. The context keeps getting full and it keeps summarizing the conversation in a loop. When using Claude Sonnet 4.5 directly this amount of data can be easily injested without running out of context. Also the Copilot agent is not being intelligent at all, its mindlessly going into a loop of summarizing and trying to read the same lines again.
Extension version: 0.27.3 VS Code version: Code 1.100.3 (258e40fedc6cb8edf399a463ce3a9d32e7e1f6f3, 2025-06-02T13:30:54.273Z) OS version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.22631 Modes: Connection to 'ssh-remote+7b22686f73744e616d65223a22416e65657368456e6767564d227d' could not be established Remote OS version: Linux x64 5.15.0-152-generic
I also have the same problem. Raised a issue here: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/276328
It looks like you are using a Copilot Chat version which is more than 6 months old. We made significant improvements in the meantime. We recommend that you update the Copilot Chat extension to the newest version (0.33.5). Feel free to create new issues if you still run into problems
