What's Wrong?

What's Wrong?

When typing multi-line messages in the VS Code extension input box, the box expands upward and overlays the conversation content above it. The conversation view does not auto-scroll to accommodate the expanding input, requiring manual mouse scrolling to keep the conversation visible while typing.

What Should Happen?

Expected Behavior

The conversation content should auto-scroll upward as the input box expands, keeping both visible.
