Codini - VSCode Genie
AI-powered coding assistant that writes code, creates files, and executes commands autonomously.
✨ Features

- 📁 File Creation - Creates files directly from conversation
- ✏️ Code Rewriting - Modifies specific lines in your active file
- 🌳 Project Aware - Understands your file structure and active file
- 💻 Terminal Access - Executes shell commands on your behalf

💬 How It Works
Just describe what you want:
"Create a React component for a login form with validation"
"Add error handling to the function in my current file"
"Set up a basic Express server with CORS"
Genie will:
- Understand your request
- Write the code
- Create/modify files
- Run commands if needed
- Report what it did
🎯 Tips
- Select code before asking questions about it
- Keep a file open for better context
- Be specific - "Add TypeScript types to this function" works better than "improve this"
