Copilot Not referencing Editor

[Chamby226]

Type: Bug

Copilot is not referencing my editor correctly. It keeps telling me it doesnt have access to the full code.

Sharing my setting for allowing editor access

[mjbvz]

Thanks for the issue report. Can you please try checking a few things:

• Do you see the current editor listed as an attachment above your prompt (package.json here for example):

• Can you please share an example prompt

• Is the current editor file inside of your workspace? Is it ignored by a gitignore or by the files.exclude setting?

You can close out this ticket. I received an update and just needed more education about how things had changed. I apologize for not closing the ticket myself.
