Feature Request: Support Fuzzy Search for @ File/Folder References

[linuxsong]

Current Behavior

When using the @ symbol to reference files or folders , the search only works with exact prefix matching. For example, to find a file named ab_cd.go, users must type the exact prefix characters in sequence (a -> ab -> ab_).

Desired Behavior

Implement fuzzy search functionality similar to VSCode's built-in file search, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot. This would allow users to find files by typing non-consecutive characters that appear in the filename. For example:

• Typing abc should match ab_cd.go
• Typing acd should match ab_cd.go

Benefits

1. Improved search efficiency: Users can find files faster without needing to remember or type exact prefixes
2. Better user experience: Aligns with familiar search patterns from VSCode and other popular AI coding assistants
3. More intuitive: Matches users' natural search expectations

Love this - I actually had a similar thought yesterday! Thanks for writing it down.

How should this deviate from established terminal tools like fzf and others? Would too much fuzz leads to packing the context window?
