Smart Context file nav actions

Copy from File nav
- Right-click any folder for Smart Context clipboard/export options that respect your Context templates.
- Choose "Copy folder contents to clipboard" to export the folder's notes with headings and template formatting.
- "Open folder in Context Builder" seeds the selector modal with the folder's items so you can prune or add related notes before copying.
Copy folders
- Command palette: "Select folder to copy contents" opens the folder picker modal; great for speed when the nav tree is large.
- Multi-select folders in the file navigator, then right-click to copy all selected folders as a single context bundle.
- Folder exports respect Context template before/after wrappers so downstream prompts stay consistent.
Copy selected
- Highlight two or more notes in the file navigator to unlock "Copy selected notes as context"
- Selecting folders + files surfaces "Copy selected folders as context" for mixed exports.
- Use this when you want a quick clipboard bundle without saving a reusable context.
Create context
- Right-click any folder to open it directly in the Context Builder modal, then adjust depth, remove items, or add related sources.
- Multi-select files/folders and use "Open selection in Context Builder" to curate a one-off context with the tree preview at the top of the modal.
- Save curated bundles from the modal for repeatable workflows or immediate copy.
Workflows
- Rapid project kickoff: multi-select project folder + spec note → open in Context Builder → trim noise → copy to clipboard for AI briefings.
- Quick review packet: select meeting notes + decision log → copy selected notes as context for async stakeholder updates.
- Clipboard vs builder: use the folder menu for fast exports; switch to the builder when you need to exclude sub-notes or add related files.
