A Neovim plugin that brings GitHub Copilot Chat capabilities directly into the editor, supporting multiple AI models including GPT-4o, Claude, and Gemini, plus custom providers like Ollama. It offers an interactive chat UI with tool calling, diffs, quickfix integration, and a scriptable Lua API.

Use cases

  • chat with github copilot inside neovim
  • ask ai to explain or fix code in my editor
  • use claude or gpt-4o in neovim
  • ai code assistant with diff and quickfix integration
  • run llm prompts on my codebase from the terminal
  • connect mcp tools to neovim ai chat

When to choose

  • you use Neovim as your primary editor and have a GitHub Copilot subscription
  • you want a transparent, scriptable AI chat with Lua API and headless mode
  • you need tool calling, custom providers, or MCP integration in your editor

When to avoid

  • you use VS Code or JetBrains, where official Copilot Chat extensions exist
  • you don't have a GitHub Copilot subscription or compatible Neovim (0.10+) and curl
  • you want a standalone GUI chat app rather than an in-editor experience
