I believe that's exactly what GitHub Copilot does. It first scans and indexes your entire codebase including dependencies (I think). So when it auto-completes, it heavily uses the context of your code, which actually makes Copilot so useful.

You're absolutely right about models coming to our data! If we could have Copilot-like intelligence, completely on-device, scanning all sorts of personal breadcrumbs like messages, browsing history, even webpage content, it would be a game-changer!
