bug: Cody not able to view or access files/context that i attach in the chat

[flubzie]

Version

v1.30.3

Describe the bug

the @-mention feature doesn't seem to work. Cody is not able to view or access the files or repositories that I try to add via @-mention.

Direct response from Cody after asking it if it can see the code in the files I've attached:

It appears that I cannot directly view or access files that you attach in this chat. However, you can copy and paste the contents of your frontend code here, and I will be able to help you with it. Please go ahead and paste the relevant code or information, and I'll assist you accordingly.

Expected behavior

I would expect Cody to be able to access the code, or other content, that are contained in the files/repositories I try to add as context.

Additional context

No response

(I'm on Intellij plugin version 7.0.1)
Same here. It appears to happen when I use @(root-folder) and for example ask 'what is the unit test framework configured', it gives the reply mentioned above. When I do @(root-folder) and @package.json it responds in the correct/expected way (which in this case saying there was no framework configured (the package file is quite empty))
So it seems the @(root-folder) does not give the appropriate context to Cody. Which kind of defeats the slogan "Cody: the AI assistant that actually knows your codebase" :P

@flubzie maybe this might help you if you are on VS? https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=mnismt.cody-plus-plus I came across it here: https://community.sourcegraph.com/t/adding-a-project-folder-as-context/737

Also, sometimes it just pretends to have access and just completely makes up a package json and starts reporting on that made up file. It's interesting to feel my reliability perception plummet.

Fun fact: Just installed VS Code and did the exact same steps as with my own IDE, and in VS Code it works flawlessly!
(exact same prompt in the exact same folder/vanilla project)

I'm facing this issue too. I have to specify each of the files that I want to review, cody is not getting the files from my repository or the root "src" folder.

I'm working with:

• WebStorm 2024.2.3
• plugin version 7.5.6
• LLM Claude 3.5 Sonnet
