Love this! Here's what I'm thinking:
I don't think this will go as far as replacing meilisearch for everyone, but it sure sounds like a game changer for someone already using ActivityWatch, or who is willing to adopt
From a quick look, it seems a ContextProvider could use the aw-client Python package to get data from the server - does this seem right, or have you ever used the python package before?
I'm not a python dev, but hey - I got continue and a bunch of AI co-pilots :-)
Their vs-code tracker might need some work though: https://github.com/ActivityWatch/aw-watcher-vscode/issues/12
Sends following data to ActivityWatch:
This could be super useful as a meta-context kind of "get me back to what I was working on yesterday", since that's the heaviest time sink in this new age of AI, I just can't remember what happened the last time I sat down for a long stretch of time. I need help synthesizing my own past thinking.
Very interesting. A side note here is that we could accomplish some of this by looking at the output of git log
@context inputs are tedious and explicit
Solution
ActivityWatch team is only starting to look at AI, see their blog post: "Full-Context Tracking: A Double-Edged Sword / Opportunities for AI Applications"
I could see AW replace all the @context / Meilisearch component of continue :-)
