I am reduced to keeping Emacs and VSCode open on the same files/project :-) Use the LLM from VSCode and switch back to Emacs for regular editing!

Currently trying out various Emacs packages. I got 'claude-code.el' actually working. But there is some flickering and also the interface is a bit wonky.

I will try other packages mentioned in the article.

For the life of me, I can't _edit_ with VSCode. My Emacs/Doom/Evil muscle memory is too ingrained.

Install ECA. Read my comment in the same thread. Once you hook up elisp evaluating MCP to your Emacs - it is game over for anything else. Nothing even comes close to the experience. I've been functioning in ADD mode - Annoyance-Driven-Development. I'd get annoyed by some small issue, and without missing a beat, I'd start typing. Well, sometimes I don't even type anymore - I'd just speak and let Whisper transcribe it and Emacs performs some crazy shit. It's not even funny how crazy it is.

gptel-agent ships with an elisp-eval tool out of the box, BTW.

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 message to my colleague. I can ask some model to improve my prompt while typing the same very prompt for a different model - that's just bonkers.
