When the side panel is narrow the contents of the Continue extension get cropped. Resizing the window to make it wider solves the issue. I have the impression there is some kind of CSS limit (min width) somewhere. I've uploaded two screenshots, one with the side panel taking up roughtly half of my scren (1920px) where everything is visble and another one, narrower with the contents cut off.

I tried the following commands without success on VSCodium:
"Developer: Reload Window"
"View: Reset Zoom"
"View: Reset View Locations"

To reproduce
  1. Install VSCodium
  2. Install Continue Extensions V2.0.0
  3. Open the side panel
  4. Resize the side panel

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Continue extension's side panel on VSCodium and compare the wide and narrow layouts described in the screenshots. Inspect the side-panel UI entry point and its layout constraints; done means the contents remain fully usable when the panel is resized narrowly, without requiring a wider window.
