Kawarimi

Kawarimi is the VS Code companion for a browser-to-editor workflow that applies AI-generated code through a simple Find → Replace flow—without API keys or manual copy-paste.

Required: Install the Kawarimi Chrome extension from GitHub Releases.

Usage

1. Open the target file in VS Code and keep it active.
2. Wait until the AI finishes generating the code.
3. Click Find on the original code block.
4. Click Replace on the new code block.

Kawarimi updates and automatically saves the active VS Code file.

• All — replaces every match
• 1st — replaces only the first match
• Done — marks the latest successful replacement
• Ctrl+Z / Cmd+Z — undoes the change
