Neo Bug Forge — The AI Bug Fixer That Actually Teaches You
Other AI tools fix your bug silently. You ship it, and learn nothing.
Neo Bug Forge fixes the bug and makes sure you understand it — the concept behind it, why you hit it, and what to watch for next time. Click any red squiggle, stay in your editor, come out a better developer.

Key Features
- 🎓 Teaches, doesn't just patch — every fix names the underlying concept and the mental-model gap that caused the bug, in plain English
- 🔀 Shows you the fork in the road — when a bug has more than one valid fix, it tells you both and how to choose. Most tools silently decide for you
- 🧪 Self-explaining tests — generated tests open with what they catch and why, so you learn what makes a good regression test
- ⚡ Lightbulb Quick Fix — click any red squiggle → Fix with AI
- 🚀 No signup to start — 10 free fixes the moment you install
- 🧠 Deep workspace context — understands your entire project
- 🔍 Explain Code — learn what any code does, and why it works that way
- ✅ One-click apply — fix goes straight into your file, no copy-paste
- ⚡ Works in Cursor and VS Code
Built for developers who want to get better, not just get unblocked — juniors levelling up, and anyone working in an unfamiliar codebase.

Lightbulb Quick Fix
Neo Bug Forge integrates with VS Code's diagnostic system. Whenever your language server, TypeScript, ESLint, or any linter flags an error, the ⚡ lightbulb appears automatically.
Configure in Settings:
neo-bug-forge.diagnostics.enabled — turn the lightbulb on/off (default: on)
neo-bug-forge.diagnostics.severityThreshold — error (default) · warning · all
Workspace Context
When you trigger a fix, Neo Bug Forge automatically includes related files for deeper context:
- Files open in your editor
- Files in the same folder as the broken code
- Files that reference the same functions or classes
You'll see a 📎 X context files included badge in the panel.
Configure in Settings:
neo-bug-forge.context.enabled — turn off for sensitive code
neo-bug-forge.context.maxFiles — how many files to include (default: 5, max: 10)
Supported Languages
