Description
Using Eclipse 4.31 and Copilot 0.10.0 eclipse plugin.
When adding multiple files as context in the chat window, it seems that copilot only cares about the first one, and can see the others.
I fails regardless of using agent or ask mode.

Reproduce the issue in Eclipse 4.31 with Copilot plugin 0.10.0 by adding multiple files as chat context. Compare the behavior in Ask and Agent modes with one file versus several files. Done means Copilot can use all selected files rather than only the first.
