if you leave qtns here he'll see it

Less a question and more a strong suggestion: codemaps should be viewable in the main pain. The sidebar is FAR too small. Either default or a button or something to open it like an editor tab.

acked. you can also open it in a browser window for now https://windsurf.com/codemaps/9e2791c4-0b14-4757-b4be-a71488...

Right but you're an IDE and I want to view code (and especially the links) in the IDE.

Hopefully we can get codemaps in the main IDE panel sooner rather than later. Feels like the very impressive thing (codemaps) is being held back by a trivial thing (reading them in a 200px panel) to the point it's impractical to use themm

just cahtted internally

turns out our dev actually had a PR for it but wasnt sure it was valuable

you just helped tip it over the line. see it in next release

Do you have any examples/demos for very large codebases? Because it's easy to get decent quality output using LLMs on small codebases. But large, messy codebases is where you really need help with understanding.

we dogfooded this with some v large customers i cant name before launch so .. yeah reasonably confident, but ofc no guarantees overall.
