Verified Solution[microsoft/vscode] "Gemini 3 Flash (Preview)" is actually "Gemini 2.0 Flash (Preview)"

### ROOT CAUSE
The issue arises because the extension's internal mapping incorrectly associates the display name "Gemini 3 Flash (Preview)" with the model ID for "Gemini 2.0 Flash". This mismatch causes the AI to respond with the wrong model name. The root cause is a misconfiguration in the model mapping within the extension's code.
### CODE FIX
Update the model mapping in the extension's code to ensure "Gemini 3 Flash (Preview)" maps to the correct model ID. Here's the fix:
```typescript
// In the extension's models.ts file (or equivalent)
const modelMapping = {
// ... existing mappings ...
"Gemini 3 Flash (Preview)": "gemini3-flash-preview", // Correct ID for Gemini 3
"Gemini 2.0 Flash (Preview)": "gemini2-flash-preview", // Ensure this remains correct
// ... other mappings ...
};
// Ensure the extension uses this mapping when initializing the AI
// Example: updateModelSelection(modelName);
```
**Steps to apply:**
1. Locate the model mapping file in the extension (e.g., `src/models.ts`).
2. Replace the incorrect mapping for "Gemini 3 Flash (Preview)" with the correct ID.
3. Rebuild and redeploy the extension.
This fix ensures the extension sends the correct model ID, resolving the mismatch in the AI's response.
