Auto Select is an AI-powered feature that analyzes your task description and automatically suggests which files are most relevant to include in the context.

Instead of manually hunting through your project to find relevant files, you:

• Describe what you want to do (e.g., "Add dark mode to the app")
• AI analyzes the task and your project structure
• Receives smart file suggestions with reasoning
• Click "Apply Selection" to auto-select those files

Context Save creates a comprehensive summary of your current work state, perfect for:

• Handoffs to other developers
• Documentation
• Continuing work later
• Code reviews

The AI generates a structured document with: summary of work done, solved problems, current problem, key insights, next steps, modified files, and dependencies.

Prompt Generator creates detailed implementation plans with step-by-step instructions. It includes:

• Clear task description
• Sequential implementation steps (each atomic and actionable)
• Technologies and tools to use
• Architecture overview
• Code context and patterns to follow
• Testing strategy
• Edge cases to consider

Perfect for complex features that need careful planning before implementation.
