Sidekick: keep using neovim while a dozen agents rewrite your code
Sidekick is a new tool designed to bridge the gap between the Neovim text editor and various AI coding agents. It prevents AI agents from overwriting unsaved user code in Neovim by pausing edits when the user is actively typing. When an AI agent modifies a file the user has open, Sidekick automatically refreshes the Neovim buffer, preserving cursor position. The tool also allows users to easily inject their current Neovim visual selection into prompts for AI agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Pi. AI
IMPACT Enables smoother workflows for developers using AI agents alongside Neovim by preventing conflicts and improving context sharing.
