No access to local files?

Hello,

I use Cody for a PHP Symfony project from PhpStorm.

During use, I said in a prompt that Cody should be based on the code/structure of another file. Here I did not insert the code of the file but instead referred to this file via @Filename.

The response was that Cody does not have direct access to external files.

I do not understand that. I thought that this is exactly the advantage of Cody because it knows my local project and my local files.

Am I misunderstanding something or have I configured something wrong? In the chat context, the local project is activated and selected.

Thanks for tips and help.

Best regards

Timo

I was able to reproduce this bug, and reported in internal Slack.

Sorry about this!

Thanks for your feedback. In other cases it worked without any problems - even with the reference to 2 different local files. Unfortunately I don’t know why.

How can I add chat context by selecting multiple files instead of referring to rhem with @files when they are open?

I’m about to cancel my pro subscription. The truth is that despite the AI ​​implementation being very good (chat-PGT, cloude), my personal perception is that the chat interface and the management of context environments is very poor and that the only support channel hasn’t responded in over 4 months. It’s crazy for something you’re paying for. I think that before going for new AI engines and their support, they should debug and make the interface and customer interaction with the product more user-friendly.
