⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE
**UPDATE: Free usage should now be solid across most file types, though it may still be glitchy with Markdown files. If you are having issues as a registered user, please use the "❓ Support" button on the bottom right corner.
Please check for updates regularly as improvements are being released frequently.
We are also aware of the bug where the chat window is too wide on startup, please manually adjust it as you wish, VS Code should remember the panel width. We're working on this.
