What's Wrong?

Claude code is often suggesting I press "ctrl-g to edit prompt in VS Code" or "ctrl-g to edit in VS Code", yet I don't even have VS Code.

Please make it stop!

What Should Happen?

I use IntelliJ, and it's connected to IntelliJ, so maybe it could offer to edit in that (or just nothing).

Additional Information

The Operating System question is a little tricky, as I'm running Claude in a docker container, in Terminal.app running on a Mac, and connected to IntelliJ with the back end in the container and the front end on the Mac.
