In-editor chat window

[bqv]

Problem

Chat requires a browser

Expected behavior

In app interactive buffer or similar, would be nice. Reverse engineering the chat protocol possible?

[monkoose]

So you want to implement it?

[bqv]

You don't want to?

While this would be pretty cool, I think it's quite a bit of work.

[monkoose]

I have no plans to do it myself.
For me it is "quite a bit of work" with minified js with shortened variable and function names to understand codeium internals with 0 benefit.

Which limitation browser chat has that can be solved with in-editor chat? Why someone should spend so much time to create it?

[LeonardoMor]

I think it's mostly cosmetic.

If you use Neovim on a remote server through ssh, you might not have a browser.

If you know the port the chat is on, you can make an ssh tunnel to use the remote chat on a local browser.

Beyond that, it's not a problem in my opinion.
