Describe the bug

Sometimes, when user is working out of the terminal with copilot CLI, the active cursor will jump to a file that copilot is working on.

This is disruptive because when it is time to type out the next prompt, the prompt will be entered into the .md file by default.

This is hinders the user from experiencing a seamless flow. And does not occur when working with Claude Code
