how does it handle large codebases, does it index the whole project or just the file you have open? curious about context limits.
how does it compare to the built-in copilot stuff already in vscode, especially on price?
Slim and tidy setup, no extra config needed. The sidebar chat feels natural while keeping my code in view, which I appreciate more than I expected.
does it use my own api key or is it a hosted model on your end, and how does that change the pricing?
The sidebar setup feels really natural, just asks a question and it pulls in the right context from my file without me copying anything over. Honestly surprised how little it gets in the way compared to heavier assistants.
