AI generated code map for navigation and context #16597

Open AriMKatz opened 3 weeks ago

Check for existing issues

Describe the feature

Instead of minimap/navigating symbols, you have AI "folding" where you abstract code into a map or code graph that has a dynamic zoom feature for granularity. This is useful for the user, but also as context for the assistant as a smart "codebase summary" (see how aider does a static version)

Possibly better than fold because you aren't folding on symbols but on other possibly more abstract/ useful things like functionality.

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature

I like the idea of this, why not let the AI access tools (to gather context) and have them be available to zoom out/in on a given codebase?!
