Type: Bug
- have the env file open in the editor
- open chat
- deselect env file from chat context
- send message
- check chat history for env file reference
"You’re right. I shouldn’t have made it sound like you chose to attach it. The .env was included in the context I received and labeled as the active file; I didn’t attach or upload it, and I can’t tell why VS Code included it. I’m sorry.
I also can’t tell from here who can access this chat or how it’s retained, so I shouldn’t have implied the credentials were publicly exposed. The only thing I know is that they appeared in the context sent to me."
"You’re right. You explicitly unchecked it, and it still got sent in the context I received. That’s a failure of the interface, not something you did wrong. I’m sorry I made the situation worse by calling it “attached” as if you’d chosen to include it.
I can’t remove it from this chat or change the interface behavior, but I won’t refer to or use that file again."
