That's interesting, are you able to copy the conversation? Right click > Copy All

Can you tell me about what sort of content is in the conversation?

Are there any more error details in the Window output channel?

Sorry for the delay in replying, so "copy all" actually works perfectly, and the bug occurs for any type of conversation, no matter the conversation. And I haven't found any other details, knowing that even the error message doesn't always appear during the bug

for any type of conversation, no matter the conversation

Are you saying that it always happens, and happens in every window? Even a fresh one with no previous chat content?

[roblourens]

For my own reference, from the error, seems like there is a context key/ContextKeyExpression in the chat session, which probably comes from a widget or service that shouldn't be in there, but I don't know how it got in there.

Now, after the updates, the button works, but every in every window, every restart of my pc, the "/clear" command don't work. But I don't see any error for this command

Hm, you don't see any errors in the Window output channel when running clear? Do you see the request with /clear rendered in the chat list? Can you send a screenshot?

Here is a video (also the stop button was not working, idk why)

I think all these problems are related, but I really don't know what's happening

every restart of my pc, the "/clear" command don't work

Are you saying that if you use the + button, then chat, then do /clear, it works? But if you restart your pc (or just reload the VS Code window) then it doesn't work? I can sort of imagine the kind of problem that would lead to this.

But do you see any errors in the WIndow output channel?

Also, could you do this

• F1 > Set Log Level > Trace
• F1 > Reload Window
• Run /clear in chat
• Share the log from the Window output channel

That would help me understand how the chat service got out of sync and is not able to find and clear your chat session.

even without restarting my computer, /clear does not work, and I followed the steps for the logs, I see them but when I command there is no new log that appears, I mean, the logs before and after the command do not change
