Zed: The Fastest AI Code Editor

Maybe once all of this is a bit more mature we can just get down to the minimal subset of features that are really important.

I’d love a nvim plugin that is more or less just a split chat window that makes it easy to paste code I’ve yanked (like yank to chat) add my commentary and maybe easily attach other files for context. That’s it really.

I can highly recommend gp.nvim, it has a few features but by default it's just a chat window with a yank-to-chat function. It also supports a context file that gets pasted into every chat automatically (for telling the AI about the tools you use etc)

Have you seen CodeCompanion (https://github.com/olimorris/codecompanion.nvim)?

That is the dream! Would love someone to create a vim plugin for this, if not I'll do it myself if there is enough demand.

Last time I used it, Avante was pretty much nailing what you are describing.
