← Back to context

The only part AI auto complete I found I really like is when I have a function call that takes like a dozen arguments, and the auto complete can just shove it all together for me. Such a nice little improvement.

My least favourite part of the auto complete is how wordy the comments it wants to create are. I never use the comments it suggests.

  • I have been begging Claude not to write comments at all since day 1 (it's in the docs, Claude.md, i say the words every session, etc) and it just insists anyway. Then it started deleting comments i wrote!

    Fucking robot lol

Do you mean suggesting arguments to provide based on name/type context?

  • Yeah, it usually gets the required args right based on various pieces of context. It have a big variation though between extension. If the extension can't pull context from the entire project (or at least parts of it) it becomes almost useless.

    • IntelliJ platform (JetBrains IDEs) has this functionality out of the box without "AI" using regular code intelligence. If all your parameters are strings it may not work well I guess but if you're using types it works quite well IME.
