Description

My Ctrl+L keybind is pretty standard:

The setting is disabled:

No, I do not have my Shift key stuck.

Even using > Focus chat (which is the keybind bound to) causes the issue:

To reproduce

1. Continue tab
2. Open settings
3. Expand Show Experimental Settings
4. Make sure Add Current File by Default is disabled
5. Go to some file. Select nothing.
6. (optional) Close the secondary side bar (where Continue is).
7. Press Ctrl+L (which is new chat).

Instead just chat opening, it also adds the active file :(

Log output

No logs related to Continue happen, but okay:

This bug is triggered frequently when using SSH. Is there any solution?
