Expected behaviour

Amazon Q CLI should have an option (e.g., a flag or setting) to force reading the entire file content, providing complete context of the codebase. This would help Amazon Q understand the full scope of existing functions, classes, and implementations to avoid duplications and provide better code suggestions. For example, a --full-context flag or configuration setting that ensures complete file analysis.

This feature would be particularly valuable for:
• Large codebases with many functions
• Avoiding duplicate implementations
• Better understanding of existing code structure
• More accurate refactoring suggestions
• Comprehensive code analysis
• Suggested implementation (like a --full-context flag)

The template includes conversation context to help the development team understand your use case.
