altimate-code VS Code Extension

A Visual Studio Code extension that integrates altimate-code directly into your development workflow.

Prerequisites

This extension requires the altimate-code CLI to be installed on your system. Visit altimate.ai for installation instructions.

Features

  • Quick Launch: Use Cmd+Esc (Mac) or Ctrl+Esc (Windows/Linux) to open altimate-code in a split terminal view, or focus an existing terminal session if one is already running.
  • New Session: Use Cmd+Shift+Esc (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+Esc (Windows/Linux) to start a new altimate-code terminal session, even if one is already open. You can also click the altimate-code button in the UI.
  • Context Awareness: Automatically share your current selection or tab with altimate-code.
  • File Reference Shortcuts: Use Cmd+Option+K (Mac) or Alt+Ctrl+K (Linux/Windows) to insert file references. For example, @File#L37-42.
