Copy folders and files for chatbots or initialize them hands-free!
Use built-in API Tools for code completions, file refactoring and applying chat responses.
Gemini Coder lets you conveniently copy folders and files for chatbots. With the Connector browser extension you can initalize them hands-free!
The extension uses the same context for built-in API Tools: code completions and file refactoring.
- 100% free & open source: MIT License
- Explorer view: Intuitive context selection
- Versitale: Not limited to Gemini or AI Studio
- API Tools with your keys: Gemini API or OpenRouter
- Private: Does not collect any usage data
- Local: WebSockets for local browser communication
- One of a kind: Include websites in context
- Lightweight: Unpacked build is just ~1.3MB
Other AI coding tools try to "guess" what context matters, often getting it wrong. Gemini Coder works differently:
- You select which folders and files provide relevant context
- You control what examples of coding conventions to include
- You know how much tokens are used in web chats and code completion/file refactoring requests
The result? Unmatched in accuracy, speed and cost AI assistance.
Too many tokens fighting for attention may decrease performance due to being too "distracting", diffusing attention too broadly and decreasing a signal to noise ratio in the features. ~Andrej Karpathy
