What version of the IDE extension are you using?

26.422.21459

What subscription do you have?

OpenAI API

Which IDE are you using?

VS Code

What platform is your computer?

windows

What issue are you seeing?

the dropdown for "Select where to run the task" - "Work locally"/"Send to Cloud" occupies a lot of space
It's not something I use often, and to be precise - ever, because Cloud option isn't even available, but yet it takes almost two lines of text height.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Open Codex extension in the sidebar.

What is the expected behavior?

Would be amazing to either hide the dropdown, or move somewhere, or make foldable.
