gait

Welcome to gait, an extension for storing and sharing Github Copilot or Cursor prompts and conversations!

Usage

gait Automatically Records Cursor + Copilot Chats

No work on your end. There might be some delay!

AI blame: Viewing Chats

Hover Demo

Hover over AI-generated code to see the prompt that led to that particular code snippet. The other lines generated by that prompt get highlighted as well. Prompts are like automatic documentation.

Managing Chats: Stage, Unstage, and Delete

Chats that result in code get automatically written to file to be committed. If there's any reason you'd like to hide a chat, you can manually "stage" and "unstage" chats - - treat chats like diffs.

Open the gait side view by clicking on the gait icon in the Activity Bar.
Use the Panel View to stage or unstage chats
IMPORTANT: when you commit,

> git add .gait/

Toggling Annotations (Hover and Highlight)

Use the keyboard shortcut Cmd+Shift+G to toggle full color highlights on and off.

Continuing a Chat

Select a previous chat from the Panel View.
Click the "resume" button to continue the chat.
Gait will provide all necessary context, including prompts and context files, in a markdown file.

Features

Automatic Chat Capture: Gait automatically captures your inline chats and panel chats.
Chat Management: Manage panel chats in the UI - stage and unstage them like files in a commit.
AI-Blame: Hover over AI-generated code to view the prompt that led to that commit.

Latency - It takes some time for the metadata to show up for us to read in Cursor/Copilot! Inline chats - We don't have a super clean way of capturing your diffs, they may be delayed or missing!
