The annoying issue sometimes is that while it is faster to do it yourself, the context of the LLM is not updated. So now you have you to mention that and mentioning it is a bit fuzzier sometimes than the LLM simply doing the rename itself, so the context stays up to date.
The llm will figure it out when it relooks at the file.
This feels like a good place for tighter integration between editors and agents. The editor could notify the agent of user authored changes.
This is very trivial to implement in any serious tool/workflow. I have a version of it in my pi nvim setup.
