## What it is
A Neovim plugin that integrates Copilot LSP's Next Edit Suggestions with an embedded terminal for AI CLI tools like Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Codex. It provides inline diff visualization, hunk-by-hunk review, and context-aware AI prompts without leaving the editor.

## Use cases
- get AI next edit suggestions in neovim
- run claude code inside neovim
- review and apply AI-generated diffs in my editor
- chat with AI assistants without leaving neovim
- send file context and diagnostics to an AI CLI
- integrate copilot next edit suggestions with neovim

## When to choose
- you use Neovim 0.11+ and want AI edit suggestions and AI CLI access in one plugin
- you want word/character-level diff review before applying AI edits
- you want pre-configured support for Claude, Gemini, Codex, and Copilot CLIs

## When to avoid
- you don't use Neovim as your editor
- you don't have a Copilot LSP setup or any AI CLI subscriptions
- you prefer fully autonomous AI agents over inline suggestions and manual review
