Select code in Visual mode and press `ctt`:** A floating prompt window opens. **2. Describe what you want:** ``` add error handling and input validation ``` **3. Press `` to submit — the LLM generates code inline.** **4. Review the conflict and accept/reject:** - `ct` — Accept AI suggestion (theirs) - `co` — Keep original code (ours) - `cb` — Accept both versions - `cn` — Delete both (none) --- ## Configuration ```lua require("codetyper").setup({ llm = { provider = "copilot", -- "copilot" or "ollama" copilot = { model = "claude-sonnet-4", }, ollama = { host = "http://localhost:11434", model = "deepseek-coder:6.7b", }, }, auto_gitignore = true, auto_index = false, scheduler = { enabled = true, ollama_scout = true, escalation_threshold = 0.7, max_concurrent = 2, completion_delay_ms = 100, apply_delay_ms = 5000, }, }) ``` ### Credentials Management Credentials are stored in `~/.local/share/nvim/codetyper/configuration.json`. ```vim :CoderCredentials " View status :CoderSwitchProvider " Switch between Copilot and Ollama :CoderModel " Quick switch Copilot model ``` --- ## LLM Providers ### GitHub Copilot Uses your existing Copilot subscription via OAuth. Requires `copilot.lua` or `copilot.vim`. ```lua llm = { provider = "copilot", copilot = { model = "claude-sonnet-4" }, } ``` Use `:CoderModel` to switch between Copilot models (gpt-4o, gpt-4.1, claude-sonnet-4, o4-mini, etc.). ### Ollama (Local) Run models locally with no API costs. ```lua llm = { provider = "ollama", ollama = { host = "http://localhost:11434", model = "deepseek-coder:6.7b", }, } ``` --- ## Commands Reference ### Main Command | Command | Description | |---------|-------------| | `:Coder tree` | Refresh tree.log | | `:Coder tree-view` | View tree.log in split | | `:Coder reset` | Reset processed prompts | | `:Coder gitignore` | Force update .gitignore | | `:Coder transform-selection` | Open transform prompt | | `:Coder index-project` | Index the entire project | | `:Coder index-status` | Show index status | | `:Coder llm-stats` | Show LLM accuracy stats | | `:Coder llm-reset-stats` | Reset LLM accuracy stats | | `:Coder cost` | Toggle cost window | | `:Coder cost-clear` | Clear cost session | | `:Coder credentials` | Show credentials status | | `:Coder switch-provider` | Switch provider | | `:Coder model` | Quick switch Copilot model | ### Standalone Commands | Command | Description | |---------|-------------| | `:CoderTree` | Refresh tree.log | | `:CoderTreeView` | View tree.log in split | | `:CoderTransformSelection` | Transform prompt for selection | | `:CoderIndexProject` | Index entire project | | `:CoderIndexStatus` | Show index status | | `:CoderCost` | Toggle cost window | | `:CoderCredentials` | Show credentials status | | `:CoderSwitchProvider` | Switch provider | | `:CoderModel [model]` | Switch Copilot model | ### Conflict Resolution | Command | Description | |---------|-------------| | `:CoderConflictToggle` | Toggle conflict mode | | `:CoderConflictMenu` | Show resolution menu | | `:CoderConflictNext` | Go to next conflict | | `:CoderConflictPrev` | Go to previous conflict | | `:CoderConflictStatus` | Show conflict status | | `:CoderConflictResolveAll [keep]` | Resolve all (ours/theirs/both/none) | | `:CoderConflictAcceptCurrent` | Accept original code | | `:CoderConflictAcceptIncoming` | Accept AI suggestion | | `:CoderConflictAcceptBoth` | Accept both versions | | `:CoderConflictAcceptNone` | Delete both | | `:CoderConflictAutoMenu` | Toggle auto-show menu | --- ## Keymaps ### Default Keymaps | Key | Mode | Description | |-----|------|-------------| | `ctt` | Normal | Open prompt window at cursor | | `ctt` | Visual | Open prompt window for selection | ### Conflict Resolution Keymaps Buffer-local keymaps active when conflicts exist: | Key | Description | |-----|-------------| | `co` | Accept CURRENT (original) code | | `ct` | Accept INCOMING (AI suggestion) | | `cb` | Accept BOTH versions | | `cn` | Delete conflict (accept NONE) | | `cm` | Show conflict resolution menu | | `]x` | Go to next conflict | | `[x` | Go to previous conflict | | `` | Show menu when on conflict | ### Cost Window Keymaps | Key | Description | |-----|-------------| | `q` / `` | Close window | | `r` | Refresh display | | `c` | Clear session costs | | `C` | Clear all history | --- ## Inline Transform The core workflow. Select code and describe what you want. ### Normal Mode (No Selection) Press `ctt` — a prompt window opens. Describe what you want and code is **inserted at the cursor line**. ### Visual Mode (With Selection) Select code, press `ctt` — describe changes and the **selected code is replaced** with generated code. ### Context Handling The plugin uses Tree-sitter and indentation analysis to determine context: - **Partial function selection**: Enclosing function sent as context, only selected lines replaced - **Whole function selected** (>=85%): Injection range expanded to full function boundaries - **Multiple functions**: All affected functions included in context - **Whole file selected** (>=80%): Project tree sent as additional context - **Explain/question prompts**: Documentation inserted above the selection --- ## Intent Detection The plugin classifies your prompt to decide how code should be applied: | Intent | Keywords | Action | |--------|----------|--------| | complete | complete, finish, implement | replace | | refactor | refactor, rewrite, simplify | replace | | fix | fix, repair, debug, update, change | replace | | add | add, create, insert, new, generate | insert | | document | document, comment, jsdoc, annotate | replace | | test | test, spec, unit test | append | | optimize | optimize, performance, faster | replace | | explain | explain, tell me, what does, question | insert | **Explain intent** is special: it generates documentation comments and inserts them above the selected code rather than replacing it. If nothing is selected, a notification is shown. --- ## Scope Resolution Prompts and selections automatically resolve to their enclosing scope using Tree-sitter (with indentation fallback): ```typescript function getUserById(id: number): User | null { // Select this line and ask "add error handling" // → The full function is sent as context to the LLM } ``` Scope types: `function`, `method`, `class`, `block`, `file` --- ## Conflict Resolution When code is generated, it is shown as a git-style conflict: ``` <<<<<<< CURRENT // Original code here ======= // AI-generated code here >>>>>>> INCOMING ``` - **Green background**: Original (CURRENT) code - **Blue background**: AI-generated (INCOMING) code - **Virtual text**: Shows available keymaps After resolving a conflict, the menu automatically shows for the next one. Toggle auto-show with `:CoderConflictAutoMenu`. --- ## Cost Tracking Track LLM API costs across sessions: ```vim :CoderCost ``` - Session and all-time statistics - Per-model breakdown with token counts - Pricing for 50+ models - Savings tracking for free models (Ollama, Copilot free tier) - History persisted in `.codetyper/cost_history.json` --- ## Health Check ```vim :checkhealth codetyper ``` --- ## Reporting Issues ### Before Creating an Issue 1. Search existing issues to avoid duplicates 2. Update to the latest version 3. Run `:checkhealth codetyper` ### Bug Reports Please include: - Description of the bug - Steps to reproduce - Expected vs. actual behavior - Neovim version (`nvim --version`) - LLM provider (Copilot or Ollama) - Error messages from `:messages` ### Debug Information ```vim :checkhealth codetyper :messages ``` --- ## Contributing Contributions welcome!
