Description
When I **ignore an error** inside a file (e.g `"./docs/intro.md"`), in VS Code, a file named `"%Users%Name%ProjectRoot%docs%intro.md%"` gets created. And this file contains the following JSON (I suppose) content:
```json
{
"context_hashes": [
27422253122545818
]
}
```
I find these files invasive 😕. They pollute the project dir, and I don't know if a `.gitignore` can reliably exclude them. Can these files be moved to a temp directory, or anywhere but the project dir.
Ty for the amazing software BTW! ^_____^

Research direction
The issue identifies VS Code's ignored-error persistence and the generated project-relative filename, but no repository file or test. Start by locating the ignored-error storage entry point and its tests, then verify that the generated JSON no longer pollutes the project directory and that ignored errors still work.
