AI context tools missing

[jinschoi]

Whatever happened to the little context buttons I could click on in a thread to add a file into the context? I know I can use @ to include them, but I didn't see anything in any release notes to indicate why the previous clickable buttons went away.

On a related note, why don't slash commands work in agent threads? Yes, the LLM can make tool calls to access some of those, but I just want to be able to reference, say, diagnostics without telling the agent to "check diagnostics" itself. Or, for example, reference a database schema using the Postgres context server, which I cannot use in an Agent thread, nor apparently can the agent access directly. It seems I cannot add anything to an agent thread with @ other than files, previous threads, symbols (which it is not entirely clear what that does), and a few others of limited scope.

The slash commands were/are a great tool, but now are limited to text threads and I don't see why they aren't supported in agent threads.
