Usability issue with autocomplete list after @ symbol
What feature would you like to see?
When typing @ symbol in Codex CLI, the drop-down menu appears with suggestions matching the typed string. Consider the case with complex files structure with multiple nested folders. The suggested list is sorted alphabetically (which is ok), but it starts with deeply nested file, which is extremely inconvenient, as default user behavior is to advance to nested folder and start typing prefix for the nester folder on the next level.
So the request is to have the first options in the drop-down menu a folder with the next level nesting.
Example:
Folder structure
--AAA--BBB-<file1..N>
| |-CCC-<file1..N>
|-DDD--EEE-<file1..N>
|-FFF-<file1..N>
- After typing
@the list will start from@AAA/BBB/file1, but I'd like to have@AAAas a first option. - After typing
@DI'd like the first option to be@DDD, not@DDD/EEE/file1. - After typing
@AAA/, I'd like to see@AAA/BBBas a first option, not@AAA/BBB/file1
This will significantly improve UX for this feature for the projects with complex files structure.
Are you interested in implementing this feature?
No. But his should be perfect case for letting Codex implement this.
