Steps to Reproduce:

2. Open GitHub Copilot Chat using the Copilot Chat icon or command.
3. Use Copilot Chat normally.
4. Close and reopen the chat panel, switch between files, or reopen the workspace.
5. Occasionally, the Claude Code chat interface appears instead of the GitHub Copilot Chat interface and history shows the codex items
## Expected behavior
Opening GitHub Copilot Chat should always display the GitHub Copilot Chat interface.
The Claude Code chat interface should only appear when I explicitly open Claude Code or select its chat view.
## Actual behavior
The Claude Code chat UI occasionally appears in the Copilot Chat area after I open GitHub Copilot Chat.
## Frequency
The issue occurs intermittently and is not consistently reproducible.
