Pieces Copilot in Sublime Text
The Pieces Copilot inside Sublime Text brings the power of AI directly into your coding workflow.
Designed to be more than just a code assistant, the Copilot enhances productivity by helping you debug code, ask coding questions, generate and update code, and insert relevant comments—all without leaving Sublime.
Answering Coding Questions
Unsure how to implement a specific piece of functionality or stuck on a bug?
You can ask the Pieces Copilot coding-related questions right within Sublime, and it will provide context-aware responses to help you move forward.
You can also ask the Pieces Copilot a question that’s grounded in the context of a specific file, or even an entire project—or you can add files as context to a LLM conversation on an as-needed basis.
One way to take advantage of the context awareness within the Pieces Copilot conversations is to add a particular file or series of files as context, then passing both the exception and any applicable stack traces received.
This gives the Pieces Copilot the most information possible to help you resolve the issue(s).
Commenting Code & Writing Documentation
Keeping well-documented code is an often overlooked aspect of programming, but it’s very important—that’s why the Pieces Copilot in Sublime Text lets you use AI to generate intelligent and context-aware code comments.
By understanding the purpose and functionality of your code blocks, the Pieces Copilot can create meaningful comments that improve code readability and maintainability, making it easier for you and your team to understand and work with the codebase.
Debugging Assistance
The Code Debugging feature in the Pieces for Sublime Text Plugin assists developers in identifying and resolving errors within their code and is accessible with just a few clicks.
This feature pinpoints issues and suggests potential fixes, streamlining the debugging process. This feature is highly useful for improving code quality and reducing the time spent on troubleshooting.
Generate & Update Code
Need boilerplate code or a complex algorithm? The Pieces Copilot can generate code snippets based on your specifications.
It also assists in updating existing code by providing improved or refactored versions where needed, helping you optimize processes, add updates, and automate otherwise repetitive tasks, all based on the context of your existing code.
Swappable LLMs
By editing a simple .JSON object in the Pieces Settings menu, you can choose from a range of available LLMs so that the Copilot utilizes your preferred model.
This lets you swap the LLM to accommodate your needs as they arise, like choosing a faster and simpler model for a quick debugging round, or a more intelligent model when you need to have context-based conversations with the Copilot.
