There is no queue management for requests to the assistant

[Andss-ye]

Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve

There should be queue management for the AI ​​assistant, since you have to wait for the first request to be completed before you can send another request.

Proposed solution

It's practical because you leave the request queue to the assistant and it follows the flow, for example:
1-request -> 2-request
Users don't have to remember what they were going to enter or ask, and it makes development easier, something similar to what Claude Code implements.

Example prompts or workflows

No response

Additional context

@Andss-ye we recently shipped some changes that I think address this?

• You can now submit a prompt while the agent is working, and the next time we make a request to the model, we'll send that prompt
• You can now queue up multiple prompts to be sent after the agent is done working/responding to the current/previous prompt

Please let us know if not!

Yep, we shipped steering and queueing: https://github.blog/changelog/2026-01-21-github-copilot-cli-plan-before-you-build-steer-as-you-go/, just didn't notice this was still open. Cheers everyone.
