AI Can Highlight Tools, Icons, etc Directly Within Onshape's UI, Similar to "Search Tools" Function

Problem/Explanation of Issue:
Sometimes when I ask the Onshape AI for help finding a tool, feature, or other button within Onshape's AI I get a bit confused due to the wording the AI uses and/or because there may be multiple things that are named similarly but are for different things. Kind of like how the Split tool works differently within the Sketch view versus the Feature/Part view (i.e. 2D versus 3D splitting). A similar issue occurred when I tried to lookup how to do a cross-sectional view of one of my parts.
Request:
I want the AI to highlight the various tools it's referencing directly from the text it writes via hyperlinks that work similarly to the "Search Tools" function. In other words, the AI will highlight certain words in its prompt response such as the "Sketch button" or something like that, and when the user hovers over/clicks that hyperlink, they will see/be directed to that tool/button.
I know that Search Tools sort of already does this, but sometimes the AI doesn't give the exact name of the tool and/or where to find it and Search Tools sometimes doesn't know what I'm looking for (due to mismatch of names across various CAD softwares I've used). The Cross-sectional feature I mentioned in the Problem section is the prime example of how both the AI and the Search Tools features couldn't do much more than hint to where I needed to click.
I love both the AI and Search Tools features, I would just like to see them improved. 🙂
