Description

Validations
  • I believe this is a way to improve. I'll try to join the Continue Discord for questions
  • I'm not able to find an open issue that requests the same enhancement
Problem

I'm unable to see the current tokens sent and outputted by the model in the Chat session. I just want to avoid having exceeded the supported context length.

Solution

Just like in Cline, it's great to see the current input/output tokens that the current chat session has used. I prefer to use ContinueDev over Cline because I'm still in control of my code and still learn a lot whilst using the extension rather than have the program do it for me.
