I learnt recently, that you can link Drive folders to Lumo's projects, and that got me thinking: since I sync my coding projects to Proton Drive - maybe I can then sync respective folder with a project in Lumo so that the model has full context of it? But before doing that, I decided to test things out, and here's what I've found:

1. You can only sync files and folders from "My files". If you sync any "custom" folders - they are not available for selection.

2. It does not see the file at the start of the conversation, and the icon for a linked file appears *after* the response.

3. It does not see dynamic updates of the file in Drive, even in a new chat (the new content was "UpOriginaldatfileted").

4. It does see newly added files in that folder, but again only on second try. Considering that I provided the exact names of the files - not sure how it will behave in an a more "natural" conversation then.

  
It would be great if this could be improved, and there is, technically, a [UserVoice](https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932842-lumo/suggestions/50985784-link-to-proton-drive-folder-sync-d-with-proton-dri) for this already. For me it would be a way to have an AI assistant with which I can talk about the status of the coding project, what can I improve in it, what could be an appropriate way to implement a feature, etc. All without a need to manually upload all the files, that are already uploaded, without the need to manually update them in some way, and without a need to have a local LLM. I would even be able to tolerate how Lumo is often not as good with some coding-related and more complex architectural questions compared even to free OpenAI GPT.
