YES! I almost forgot about that. What I love about gptel that I can send a request to an LLM from virtually anywhere - any buffer, even minibuffer. Sometimes I "talk" to AI while typing a me…

> I never once felt that any AI integration in IDE's was actually worth using over a cli That's right. I started with Claude in the CLI. But then I found a way to hook it up to my active,…

Please don't do this. "editors outlive their creators' reputations/departures" - is a reasonable point. But to make it land as a zinger, you decided to dig up some most infla…
