Inline Assistant
Using the Inline Assistant
You can use ctrl-enter to open the Inline Assistant nearly anywhere you can enter text: editors, the agent panel, the prompt library, channel notes, and even within the terminal panel.
The Inline Assistant allows you to send the current selection (or the current line) to a language model and modify the selection with the language model's response.
You can use ctrl-enter to open the inline assistant nearly anywhere you can write text: editors, the Agent Panel, the Rules Library, channel notes, and even within the terminal panel.
You can also perform multiple generation requests in parallel by pressing ctrl-enter with multiple cursors, or by pressing ctrl-enter with a selection that spans multiple excerpts in a multibuffer.
Context
You can give the Inline Assistant context the same way you can in the agent panel, allowing you to provide additional instructions or rules for code transformations with @-mentions.
A useful pattern here is to create a thread in the Agent Panel, and then use the @thread command in the Inline Assistant to include the thread as context for the Inline Assistant transformation.
The Inline Assistant is limited to normal mode context windows (see Models for more).
Prefilling Prompts
To create a custom keybinding that prefills a prompt, you can add the following format in your keymap:
[
{
"context": "Editor && mode == full",
"bindings": {
"ctrl-shift-enter": [
"assistant::InlineAssist",
{ "prompt": "Build a snake game" }
]
}
}
]
