VS Code Extension API Does Not Support Multiline Quick-Input

The VS Code quick-input API restricts all prompts to a single line, blocking extension developers from implementing multiline inputs like commit messages. This forces workarounds such as opening a full editor or splitting input across multiple prompts. The limitation is a VS Code API constraint with no user-side workaround.

AI Coding CLI Compaction Hides Summary, Making Context State Opaque

When AI coding tools compact conversation history, the generated summary replacing earlier context is invisible to users. Developers cannot verify what constraints, rejected approaches, or implementation decisions the model still retains. This creates unpredictable behavior in long sessions where context fidelity is critical.
