Use your Neovim like using Cursor AI IDE!

avante.nvim (Alpha)

avante.nvim is a Neovim plugin designed to emulate the behavior of the Cursor AI IDE, providing users with AI-driven code suggestions and the ability to apply these recommendations directly to their source files with minimal effort.

Note

⚠️⚠️ This plugin is still in a very early stage of development, so please be aware that the current code is very messy and unstable, and problems are likely to occur.

Features

• AI-Powered Code Assistance: Interact with AI to ask questions about your current code file and receive intelligent suggestions for improvement or modification.
• One-Click Application: Quickly apply the AI's suggested changes to your source code with a single command, streamlining the editing process and saving time.

Installation

Install avante.nvim using lazy.nvim:

{
  "yetone/avante.nvim",
  event = "VeryLazy",
  opts = {},
  build = "make",
  dependencies = {
    "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons",
    {
      "grapp-dev/nui-components.nvim",
      dependencies = {
        "MunifTanjim/nui.nvim"
      }
    },
    "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
    "MeanderingProgrammer/render-markdown.nvim",
  },
}

Important

If your neovim doesn't use LuaJIT, then change build to make lua51. By default running make will install luajit. For ARM-based setup, make sure to also install cargo as we will have to build the tiktoken_core from source.

Default setup configuration:

{
  provider = "claude", -- "claude" or "openai" or "azure"
  openai = {
    endpoint = "https://api.openai.com",
    model = "gpt-4o",
    temperature = 0,
    max_tokens = 4096,
  },
  azure = {
    endpoint = "", -- Example: "https://<your-resource-name>.openai.azure.com"
    deployment = "", -- Azure deployment name (e.g., "gpt-4o", "my-gpt-4o-deployment")
    api_version = "2024-06-01",
    temperature = 0,
    max_tokens = 4096,
  },
  claude = {
    endpoint = "https://api.anthropic.com",
    model = "claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620",
    temperature = 0,
    max_tokens = 4096,
  },
  highlights = {
    diff = {
      current = "DiffText", -- need have background color
      incoming = "DiffAdd", -- need have background color
    },
  },
  mappings = {
    show_sidebar = "<leader>aa",
    diff = {
      ours = "co",
      theirs = "ct",
      none = "c0",
      both = "cb",
      next = "]x",
      prev = "[x",
    },
  },
}

Usage

Given its early stage, avante.nvim currently supports the following basic functionalities:

1. Set the appropriate API key as an environment variable:

   For Claude:

   export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-api-key

   For OpenAI:

   export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key

   For Azure OpenAI:

   export AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key

2. Open a code file in Neovim.

3. Use the :AvanteAsk command to query the AI about the code.

4. Review the AI's suggestions.

5. Apply the recommended changes directly to your code with a simple command or key binding.

Note: The plugin is still under active development, and both its functionality and interface are subject to significant changes. Expect some rough edges and instability as the project evolves.

Key Bindings

The following key bindings are available for use with avante.nvim:

• Leaderaa — show sidebar
• co — choose ours
• ct — choose theirs
• cb — choose both
• c0 — choose none
• ]x — move to previous conflict
• [x — move to next conflict

Roadmap

• Enhanced AI Interactions: Improve the depth of AI analysis and recommendations for more complex coding scenarios.
• Stability Improvements: Refactor and optimize the codebase to enhance the stability and reliability of the plugin.
• Expanded Features: Introduce additional customization options and new features to support a wider range of coding tasks.
