Problem Description

For users that aren't very familiar with concepts such as RAG or how LLMs handle data in general, the current implementation of having to click on a document to see that focused retrieval is used isn't very intuitive. Non-technical users are unlikely to ever click on the uploaded documents.

Desired Solution you'd like

I think using focused retrieval by default is a good idea, but it should be communicated the moment a document is uploaded. Maybe there could be a little note above the uploaded documents that informs the user that this won't process the entire document, along with a button to switch to full context mode for all documents, all visible without having to click on anything.

Alternatives Considered
