Chat with the Chatular AI directly inside VS Code attach files and let the AI propose edits with full diff approval.
Features
Chat without leaving the editor a dedicated panel in the sidebar.
File-aware attach files, or auto-include the file you're editing as context.
AI-proposed edits review every change as an approve/reject diff before it touches your code, and the file opens as a before/after diff the moment you Accept, so you always see exactly what changed.
Saved threads conversations sync to your Chatular account; resume them here or on the web.

You can revoke a key any time from your profile icon → Settings → API → Revoke; the next request will prompt you for a fresh one.
