Description

**Mood:** 😊
**Category:** General

I love this tool and i know is intended this way (its for agentic work), but really would love to have a way to check on folders and edit them even a little bit, not the whole ide tools just editor part would be great. Since humans are still on the loop, and some fixes are really too small to do, like an env variable etc or typo. I won't spend tokens on that kind of task. So thats it love this app makes me feel futuristic <3

Research direction

The request is associated with the /chat path in the GitHub Copilot desktop app. Start by reviewing the existing chat-to-repository workflow and determine the intended scope for folder inspection and small edits. Done should be defined as a user being able to check repository folders and make limited changes such as an environment-variable or typo fix.
