I've implemented the auto-expand functionality for chat messages in the VSCode extension! Here's what I added:

  1. Collapsible Messages: Long messages are now automatically collapsed with a gradient fade-out effect at the bottom.

  2. Click to Expand: Users can click on any message to expand it and see the full content.

  3. Visual Indicators: Added a "Click to expand" text that appears at the bottom of collapsed messages.

  4. Smart Detection: The extension automatically detects which messages are long enough to need collapsing.

  5. Toggle Behavior: Clicking again on an expanded message will collapse it back.

The implementation includes:

  • CSS changes for styling collapsed/expanded states with smooth transitions
  • JavaScript logic to detect message height and toggle states
  • Click handlers that preserve the code action buttons functionality

These changes have been pushed to the PR branch. Let me know if you'd like any adjustments to the implementation!
