What I want is a prompt that continuously copies whatever I'm doing, so I can ask to complete the task.

For example, say I'm converting all identifiers in a file from lowercase to CamelCase. Then after doing like 3 of them, I can ask the LLM to take over and do the remainder.

I mean, that kind of task is more than easy to do today. You could probably just create a VS Code extension that you type "convert all identifiers in this file that match this pattern from lowercase to camel case" and pipe that to the GPT API to instantly do it (without even needing to give it the first 3 examples).

Sometimes just doing stuff takes less energy than thinking about how it can be automated.

Great example of how a GPT can reason on your behalf and dramatically improve your performance. For instance, it could watch for inconsistent approaches to design or even continue an complex implementation you’ve started just from examining context signals.
