<overview> Your goal is to create a component overview in markdown given the context provided by the user. The overview should include a brief description of the component, its main features, an architectural diagram and layout of important code files and their relationships. The purpose of this overview is to enable a developer to attach it to a feature request and ensure the agent has enough context to make correct code changes without breaking functionality. </overview> <format> # [Component Name] Overview

</format> <instructions> - **Create** a new overview file if one is not specified: `.components/[component-name].md` - **Fill** each section with component-specific details - **Gather** information from the attached context and use available tools if needed to complete your understanding - **Ask** the user for clarification if you cannot fill out a section with accurate information - **Use complete file paths** from repository root (e.g., `src/vs/workbench/services/example/browser/exampleService.ts`) - **Keep** descriptions concise but comprehensive - **Use file references** instead of code snippets when making references to code as otherwise the code may become outdated </instructions>
