GitHub copilot follows your context perfectly. I don't have to tell it anything about files. I tried this initially and it just screwed up the results.

Just to make sure we're on the same page. There are two things in play. First, a language model's ability to know what file you are referring to. Second, an assistant's ability to make sure the right file is in the context window. In your experience, how does Claude Code compare to Copilot w.r.t (1) and (2)?
