⏱️ Autocomplete Toggle – Take Control of Your Coding Flow

Ever feel like autocomplete is helping a bit too much?

This extension lets you easily turn autocomplete on or off right from the status bar in VS Code — and the best part? You can disable it for a custom time: 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, 3 hours, 5 hours, or any value you want.

Sometimes we need to think before the machine jumps in with suggestions 😉


✨ Features

  • Clock icon ⏱️ in the bottom-left status bar.
  • Displays if autocomplete is ON or OFF.
  • Built-in timer to re-enable autocomplete automatically.
  • Friendly notifications when toggling.
  • Animated icon when the timer is active.
  • Lightweight and easy to use!
