some things that i already use this for: - adding sparse changes to multiple files, such as new parameters - refactoring, for instance "move the input box to another file" EXCITING

the proposed flow: - you chat with this central chat box, giving it 1-2 files - it proposes changes, could be changes in other files or even new files - you accept/reject/iterate

@cursor_ai That'll be good for documenting your types in Typescripts. I can also see it be useful in developing your API and then using it all at once.
