Command Chat: Learn How to Hide AI Features is missing from Command Palette #268450

Type: Bug

Release Notes for 1.104 have a section titled "Hide and disable GitHub Copilot AI features"

https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_104#_hide-and-disable-github-copilot-ai-features

which includes this sentence:

The command to "Hide AI Features" was renamed to reflect this change and will now reveal this new setting in the settings editor.

But it doesn't name the command, nor can I find it in Command Palette.

The Keyboard Shortcuts editor reveals it to be titled Chat: Learn How to Hide AI Features and to have the id workbench.action.chat.hideSetup.

The code indicates the command only shows if I haven't already set up chat:

constructor() {
super({
id: ChatSetupHideAction.ID,
title: ChatSetupHideAction.TITLE,
f1: true,
category: CHAT_CATEGORY,
precondition: ContextKeyExpr.and(
ChatContextKeys.Setup.hidden.negate(),
ChatContextKeys.Setup.installed.negate()
),
menu: {
id: MenuId.ChatTitleBarMenu,
group: 'z_hide',
order: 1,
when: ChatContextKeys.Setup.installed.negate()
}
});
}

Specifically in the precondition (L1330)

I think this should be removed to help me discover that I can hide AI features per-workspace.
