Description

@anwarulislam

When interacting with GitHub Copilot Chat, sometimes it suggests running a command and prompts for confirmation with Continue or Cancel buttons. However, there is no option to Skip running the command and continue the chat without interruption.

Use Case:

  • The user might already be running the suggested command manually.
  • The command might be running in another terminal or process.
  • The user wants to ignore running the command but still proceed with the chat interaction.

Current Behavior:

  • The confirmation prompt only shows Continue and Cancel.
  • Cancel stops the command but also halts the chat flow.
  • No option to skip the command and keep chatting.

Proposed Behavior:

  • Add a Skip button alongside Continue and Cancel.
  • Clicking Skip would bypass running the command but allow the chat to continue seamlessly.

Benefits:

  • Improves user experience by providing more control.
  • Avoids unnecessary command executions.
  • Keeps the conversation flow uninterrupted.
