I built vim-claude-code, a Vim/Neovim plugin that integrates Claude CLI directly into the editor to enable AI-assisted development workflows without leaving Vim.

The goal was not to build “chat inside Vim,” but to enhance real workflows developers already use.

Current features:

Generate and improve Git commit messages from diffs

Refactor selected code

Generate tests

Summarize code blocks

Send visual selections directly to Claude

Terminal-based integration (no background daemons)

Technically, the plugin follows standard Vim plugin architecture:

Lightweight plugin/ bootstrap

Lazy-loaded autoload/ modules

Modular command dispatcher

Terminal bridge to Claude CLI

Configurable keymaps

Separation of Git, workflow, and terminal logic

It works with both Vim and Neovim.

I’d appreciate feedback from the Vim community — especially around workflow improvements and architecture decisions.

Happy to answer questions.17:T5bd,Smidge (smdg.app) takes source material and produces production-ready skills compatible with the open Agent Skills spec. Works with Claude, Cursor, Copilot, and 30+ AI agents.

The core idea: your agents should have the same expertise you do, without you manually writing SKILL.md files.

How it works:

Drop source material (YouTube, PDFs, audio, docs, slides, up to 50MB each, multiple sources at once)

Source-aware extraction: transcripts get distilled, papers keep structure, slides get expanded

Automatic skill catalogues: a textbook or manual becomes multiple focused, topic-specific skills

Every skill validated against the Agent Skills spec Download individual skills or full
