File access using Continue in Visual Studio code

Hi
I have installed qwen2.5-coder:14b on my Mac and configured “continue” extension to use it as an agent. I’ve asked it do something simple like list the directory structure of my repo, but it comes back with

I'm sorry for any confusion earlier, but as an AI language model, I don't have the capability to directly access files on your local system due to security and privacy policies.

I can pass it a file directly, as part of the prompt (to explain what the automation does, for example) and that works.

I have also described the repo directory structure in a rule that I have declared in the continue extension. And the configuration of tools shows it should have the ability to list and read files.

Any thoughts on what I might be missing?

Thanks in advance
