Problem Statement

Summary
In the VSCode extension, it is currently not possible to send a screenshot/image without also entering text. Users must type at least one character before they can submit.

Expected Behavior
Users should be able to send a screenshot/image alone, without requiring any text input.

Current Behavior
The submit button is disabled when only an image is attached and the text input field is empty.

Workaround
Users must type a placeholder character (e.g., a space or ".") to send the image.
