/context command is currently unsupported on Bedrock and Vertex.

Hey @ant-kurt, thanks for the continued hard work on cc! Just a datapoint, I'm seeing /context work fine with vertex as of 1.0.93 and it's just gone as of 1.0.94

Will it not be supported moving forward? or have changes been made to it that cause it to be unsupported for now? Thanks!

We have gone through a couple iterations of the context tool - we settled on an implementation that's unfortunately unsupported in Bedrock and Vertex for the time being
