Cody for VS Code v1.20 has a new way of specifying context (which repositories and files Cody looks in when generating the response).
- Previously, there was an “enhanced context” menu in the chat input field with a toggle and some settings.
- In v1.20, we simplified it so it’s all just @-mentions, and new chats by default start by @-mentioning the current repository and file.
- There’s also a new “Try again with different context:” to help you improve Cody’s response if it’s not helpful.
See the release blog post Cody for VS Code v1.20: New chat UX plus automatic context retrieval for more info.
Please share your feedback (good and bad) on this so we can make Cody better!
