Hi HN!

As much as ChatGPT/Github CoPilot have their flaws; I've come to realize that I miss their productivity benefits when I don't have access to it. Jupyter Notebooks tend to be one of the areas where access to these AI tools is more limited. So as a fun side-project I put together a browser extension that uses ChatGPT + some prompt engineering to provide AI assistance when working in a Jupyter Notebooks or Jupyter Lab.

Currently it can improve the formatting of a cell (e.g., add type hints, docstrings, comments), it can explain code, it can explain errors, and it can complete code. It isn't perfect, but I personally enjoy using it, so I hope others will find it helpful too!
