## 📦 Installation

### Using [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim)

```lua
{
  "cargdev/codetyper.nvim",
  dependencies = {
    "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim", -- Required: async utilities
    "nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter", -- Required: scope detection
    "nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-textobjects", -- Optional: text objects
    "MunifTanjim/nui.nvim", -- Optional: UI components
  },
  cmd = { "Coder", "CoderOpen", "CoderToggle", "CoderAgent" },
  keys = {
    { "<leader>co", "<cmd>Coder open<cr>", desc = "Coder: Open" },
    { "<leader>ct", "<cmd>Coder toggle<cr>", desc = "Coder: Toggle" },
    { "<leader>ca", "<cmd>CoderAgentToggle<cr>", desc = "Coder: Agent" },
  },
  config = function()
    require("codetyper").setup({
      llm = {
        provider = "claude", -- or "openai", "gemini", "copilot", "ollama"
      },
    })
  end,
}
```

### Using [packer.nvim](https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim)

```lua
use {
  "cargdev/codetyper.nvim",
  config = function()
    require("codetyper").setup()
  end,
}
```

---

## 🚀 Quick Start

**1. Open a file and start Coder:**
```vim
:e src/utils.ts
:Coder open
```

**2. Write a prompt in the coder file (left panel):**
```typescript
/@ Create a function to validate email addresses
using regex, return boolean @/
```

**3. The LLM generates code and injects it into `utils.ts` (right panel)**

  },
})
```

### Environment Variables

| Variable | Description |
|----------|-------------|

| `OPENAI_API_KEY` | OpenAI API key |
| `GEMINI_API_KEY` | Google Gemini API key |

## 🔌 LLM Providers

### Claude (Anthropic)
Best for complex reasoning and code generation.
```lua
llm = {
  provider = "claude",
  claude = { model = "claude-sonnet-4-20250514" },
}
```

### OpenAI
Supports custom endpoints for Azure, OpenRouter, etc.
```lua
llm = {
  provider = "openai",
  openai = {
    model = "gpt-4o",
    endpoint = "https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions", -- optional
  },
}
```

### Google Gemini
Fast and capable.
```lua
llm = {
  provider = "gemini",
  gemini = { model = "gemini-2.0-flash" },
}
```

### GitHub Copilot
Uses your existing Copilot subscription (requires copilot.lua or copilot.vim).
```lua
llm = {
  provider = "copilot",
  copilot = { model = "gpt-4o" },
}
```

### Ollama (Local)
Run models locally with no API costs.
```lua
llm = {
  provider = "ollama",
  ollama = {
    host = "http://localhost:11434",
    model = "deepseek-coder:6.7b",
  },
}
```

## 📖 Usage Guide

### Tag-Based Prompts

Write prompts in your coder file using `/@` and `@/` tags:

```typescript
/@ Create a Button component with the following props:
- variant: 'primary' | 'secondary' | 'danger'
- size: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg'
- disabled: boolean
Use Tailwind CSS for styling @/
```

When you close the tag with `@/`, the prompt is automatically processed.

### Transform Commands

Transform prompts inline without the split view:

```typescript
// In your source file:
/@ Add input validation for email and password @/

// Run :CoderTransformCursor to transform the prompt at cursor
```

### Prompt Types

The plugin auto-detects prompt type:

| Keywords | Type | Behavior |
|----------|------|----------|
| `complete`, `finish`, `implement`, `todo` | Complete | Completes function body (replaces scope) |
| `refactor`, `rewrite`, `simplify` | Refactor | Replaces code |
| `fix`, `debug`, `bug`, `error` | Fix | Fixes bugs (replaces scope) |
| `add`, `create`, `generate` | Add | Inserts new code |
| `document`, `comment`, `jsdoc` | Document | Adds documentation |
| `optimize`, `performance`, `faster` | Optimize | Optimizes code (replaces scope) |
| `explain`, `what`, `how` | Explain | Shows explanation only |

### Function Completion

When you write a prompt **inside** a function body, the plugin uses Tree-sitter to detect the enclosing scope and automatically switches to "complete" mode:

```typescript
function getUserById(id: number): User | null {
  /@ return the user from the database by id, handle not found case @/
}
```

The LLM will complete the function body while keeping the exact same signature. The entire function scope is replaced with the completed version.

## 📊 Logs Panel

The logs panel provides real-time visibility into LLM operations:

### Features

- **Generation Logs**: Shows all LLM requests, responses, and token usage
- **Queue Display**: Shows pending and processing prompts
- **Full Response View**: Complete LLM responses are logged for debugging
- **Auto-cleanup**: Logs panel and queue windows automatically close when exiting Neovim

### Opening the Logs Panel

```vim
:CoderLogs
```

The logs panel opens automatically when processing prompts with the scheduler enabled.

### Keymaps

| Key | Description |
|-----|-------------|
| `q` | Close logs panel |
| `<Esc>` | Close logs panel |

---

## 🤖 Agent Mode

The Agent mode provides an autonomous coding assistant with tool access:

### Available Tools

- **bash**: Execute shell commands

### Using Agent Mode

1. Open the agent panel: `:CoderAgent` or `<leader>ca`
2. Describe what you want to accomplish
