Hi 👋
I'm currently investigating goose to replace aider for ai pair programming, mainly because of goose MCP support. However there doesn't seem to be an easy way to add files/images to the context window in the CLI. aider has
--file&--readcommand line options, and fuzzy path finding in-chat to link files (in regular text chats and as/add&/read-onlyin-chat commands completion). It would be cool for goose to have similar features.Describe the solution you'd like
Honestly I find the implementation quite good in aider, albeit a bit distracting when it tries to autocomplete each word into a path in-chat. Only triggering to autocompletion with a special tag like
@would be probably be better. But other than that I don't really see how it could be improved.I really like that it is possible to link files without necessarily reading them (with:
Add file to the chat? (Y)es/(N)o/(D)on't ask again [Yes]:), it is handy for explaining to the LLM how things work without polluting its context window.Additional context
