Positron Assistant showing "VS Code" above popup to enable GPT-5

[nathanckuhn]

Type: Bug

I just connected Positron Assistant to GitHub Copilot today for the first time. When I first ask a question, it defaulted to trying GPT-5 mini, but didn't give a response. Instead it first had a popup asking me to "Enable GPT-5 mini for all clients". Above this popup it said "VS Code (rerun without)". Why is that there? Do you want to rebrand that or is it an error?

Thanks for your bug report, @nathanckuhn!

I haven't been able to repro this myself but I will move it to triage for prioritization. It could just be a string in the forked code that needs to be updated.
