The claude.ai web interface allows users to paste images (PNG, JPG, etc.) directly into the chat input. The VS Code extension does not support this — pasted images are rejected.

Request: Allow users to paste images into the VS Code extension chat input, the same way they can in claude.ai. This is essential for sharing screenshots of UI issues, error messages, dashboards, and other visual context without needing to save and attach files manually.
