ChatGPT inside Neovim: chat, edit, and complete with GPT models.
About
ChatGPT.nvim is a popular Neovim plugin by jackMort that brings OpenAI's GPT models directly into the editor. It offers interactive Q&A sessions, persona-based conversations from Awesome ChatGPT Prompts, an interactive editing window for instruction-driven code changes, and Copilot-style code completion.
Customizable actions cover docstring creation, test generation, code optimization, summarization, bug fixing, and code explanation, all definable through JSON configuration. Rich message rendering includes styled code blocks, markdown formatting, and inline context references from LSP definitions. It requires an OpenAI API key and installs via lazy.nvim or packer with its nui, plenary, and telescope dependencies.
