Using the Action Palette

The Action Palette has been designed to be your entry point for the many configuration options that CodeCompanion offers. It can be opened with :CodeCompanionActions.

Once opened, the user can see plugin defined actions such as Chat and Open Chats. The latter, enabling the user to move between any open chat buffers. These can be turned off in the config by setting display.action_palette.opts.show_default_actions = false.

Built-in Prompts

The plugin also defines a number of prompts in the form of the prompt library:

• Commit message - Generate a commit message
• Explain code - Explain how code in a buffer works
• Explain LSP diagnostics - Explain the LSP diagnostics for the selected code
• Fix code - Fix the selected code
• Unit tests - Generate unit tests for selected code

INFO

These can also be called via the cmd line with their alias, for example :CodeCompanion /explain

The plugin also contains two built-in workflows, Code workflow and Edit test repeat workflow. See the workflows section for more information.

The built-in prompts can be turned off by setting display.action_palette.show_prompt_library_builtins = false.

You can also refresh the markdown prompts in your prompt library with :CodeCompanionActions refresh
