gllm Companion

Companion extension for gllm — brings AI-suggested code changes into VSCode as native inline diffs, and enriches gllm sessions with open editor context, cursor position, and selected text.

Features

Inline Diff Review

Review and apply AI-suggested code changes directly in the editor using native inline diffs — no context switching, no copy-pasting. When gllm proposes a change, it appears as a familiar diff overlay right where your cursor is, and you decide whether to accept or discard it.

Open Editor Context

gllm Companion automatically surfaces the files currently open in your workspace. This gives gllm a richer understanding of your project's structure and content, enabling more accurate and relevant responses without any manual setup.

Selection Context

Whatever you highlight — a function, a block, a single line — gets passed directly to gllm as context. Combined with your current cursor position, this means gllm always knows exactly what you're looking at and can respond with surgical precision.

Launch gllm

Start a new gllm session instantly from the Command Palette without leaving the editor.

Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) → gllm: Run
