Bug: "Attach selection as context" duplicates selection into the message input
Resolved 💬 4 comments Opened May 17, 2026 by navigatorpnw Closed Jun 20, 2026
What happened:
Right-clicking a portion of a previous assistant message and choosing "Attach selection as context" inserts the selected text into the message input (as quoted lines), instead of (or in addition to) attaching it as a separate context block.
Expected:
The selection should be attached as a discrete context block, not pasted into the message input.
Actual:
The selected text appears as duplicated > quoted lines in the input area.
Environment:
- Claude Code (desktop app)
- Windows 11
