When will tools/models like these start integrating with code servers and linters in IDEs instead of just yielding supercharged autocomplete?

The guy TJ De Vries works at Sourcegraph + contributes to neovim and he’s building sg.nvim - a plug-in to hook Sourcegraph AND their code assistant Cody to neovim LSP.

    I guess I've been summoned. We're primarily focusing on VSCode, IntelliJ and Neovim for Cody. Of course I'll be working on an Emacs version, but that's kinda best-effort for now. As for the new crop of codegen models, they seem to be getting to parity with GPT/Claude/Bard-class models for code autocompletions, but not so much for other tasks. We're working on incorporating OSS models, but I'd be surprised if they're ready for prime-time this year. I think next year they'll be huge. Just my $0.02, take with a grain of salt. Shit moves fast.

      I think "best-effort" would be a good tagline for emacs

      please share that elisp when you get around to the emacs version. it doesn't matter if it sucks, you can't let this t.j. hooligan get the last laugh.

  I <3 neovim, but copilot has me in vscode more than i'd like. all of these tools are amazing; seriously excited about the future here.

    I use copilot in neovim[1]. It was remarkably simple to get installed. Highly recommend [1]: https://github.com/github/copilot.vim https://github.com/github/copilot.vim

      I do use that plugin actually; TPope is an absolute boss. The One missing feature I find myself moving to VSCode for that's not in the Vim plugin yet is the ability to open up an interactive chat session and ask: "Please parse <dict name> and re-key it by <field>", making sure to remove entires where <x> is Blue and converting <y> to Yellow." and it'll dump out a 40 line (working!) parser in ~3 seconds I can then further customize. It's honestly remarkable as you can then interactively ask it to update/adjust "Can you make that a reusable function where I pass in X,Y, and Z?" "Can you convert that to a tuple comprehension?", "Can you unroll that loop and add inline comments explaining the regex?" are all futher-drilldowns I'd use and expect good responses to. I do have ShellGPT setup to give me (similar generic) responses in the terminal; but I haven't found a good way to let it see my code yet to let it parse my data structures as fluidly.

        need to mod https://github.com/jackmort/chatgpt.nvim https://github.com/jackmort/chatgpt.nvim to use copilot or ollama

        Alright - this looks amazing - thank you. I'm surprised I missed it, What's the best place to stay ontop of new/awesome neovim plugins? I admit to not having paid as much attention to /r/neovim as in past years after the recent api lockdown; but there has to be more o.0
