@shriharshmishra you can do this via a keybinding! Could you please take a look at the documentation here and see if this addresses your request? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/terminal/terminal-chat#assigning-a-keybinding-to-terminal-chat

(Maybe this behavior needs to be made more discoverable.)

5. click V (Confirm) button

6. Hit Save button.

@doggy8088 It appears you may have overlooked mentioning the step of clicking the 'Add New' button first.
