Coding Assistant is uninterruptible => flow-break #359

Closed amogorkon closed 12 months ago

amogorkon commented 1 year ago

The new coding assistant really is nice in principle, but there are two major problems with the chat. The main problem is that the assistant can't be skipped/interrupted when you got the answer you're looking for. This means you can't select and copy the snippet the assistant provided, forcing you to wait for the bot to finish. In this moment, the tool slows you down and potentially breaks the flow, which is BAD. Secondly (which I guess you already are aware of), there's no button to quickly copy a code snippet, which would be nice but not necessarily breaking the flow.

Thanks for the great comments - it's really useful to hear feedback.

We are planning to tackle both of those issues.

Just a thought: I figured sourcery uses gpt3 while copilot (which I've also beta-tested and using in parallel) uses codex. That's not a very big difference, so I'm wondering if gpt-4 could be viable for sourcery in the future?

Fixed with release of 1.6.0
