Bug Description
Feature Request: VS Code-style display formatting for file suggestions

Problem:
When using the @ modifier to reference files, long absolute paths like /Users/name/git/project/src/components/Button.tsx push the filename to the end, making it hard to quickly identify files.

Requested Feature:
Support VS Code Ctrl+P style display formatting where suggestions show:[filename] [directory] [path]

Example:

  • Current: /Users/hridyansh/git/adhoc/adhoc-lambda/src/handlers/process.ts
  • Desired: process.ts src/handlers adhoc-lambda

Use Case:
Cross-repo file suggestions in monorepos where multiple projects share similar paths. The filename is the most important identifier but appears last in current format.

Environment Info

  • Platform: darwin
  • Terminal: vscode
  • Version: 2.1.5
  • Feedback ID: 25f4cee0-1a2a-49fa-99d3-aa976f7f2490
