Description

Hey,

The "Enter" button goes out of screen over time. Resizing the chatbox window does not fix the problem. Also, when the AI messages are long, the button disappears as it entirely move to the right, and the textbox's width is increased.
This behavior persists even on VSCode's "Primary side bar" and "Panel".

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in VS Code 1.128.0 on Linux with Continue 2.0.0, using long AI messages in both the Primary side bar and Panel. Confirm that the Enter button remains visible and the textbox does not expand horizontally; no source file or test is identified in the report.
