Feature request

Area: VS Code extension — plan mode review UI

Current behavior
When Claude presents a plan for review, VS Code opens it as a Markdown document where you can select text and add inline comments. This is excellent for feedback anchored to a specific part of the plan.

However:

  • There is no free-form input box adjacent to (e.g. right below) the plan for feedback that is not tied to a text selection — general direction changes, new requirements, or requests outside the plan's scope.
  • Images/screenshots cannot be pasted into the plan review flow. To attach an image you have to leave the review and use the normal chat input, as a separate turn.

Requested behavior
On the plan review screen, add a persistent free-form comment box below the plan (similar to the regular chat input) that:

  1. accepts arbitrary text feedback not anchored to any selection, and
  2. supports pasting images/screenshots,

so that inline comments + general feedback + images can all be submitted together in a single review round.

Why
Today this requires two separate sends (inline comments, then a normal chat message), which costs an extra plan-revision round-trip each time. A combined submission would make plan review noticeably faster for plan-heavy workflows.
