🤖 AI Chat Participant

Type @xap in VS Code Chat to access the assistant. Just describe what you need — no commands required.

Examples

Goal	Example
Understand a project	`@xap help me understand this project: ./src/MyExperiment`
Ask questions	`@xap explain how many remote calls are in this workflow, and the count of each type`
Fix a bug	`@xap fix the null check bug in MyPlugin.cs`
Implement a feature	`@xap private/xap/experiments/MyExperiment Add a new feature, the details:...`
Build & deploy	`@xap build and upload private\xap\experiments\MyExperiment to pixp`

🧠 How It Works

Simple changes (bug fix, config tweak, small refactor) → implements directly
Complex features (new plugin, multi-file changes) → creates a design for your review first, then implements after approval
Questions → answers using project analysis and XAP handbook knowledge
After implementation → test on PiXP, provide feedback, iterate
