I used mcp-neovim-server to let my LLM control my vim session. that way it can debug and test and poke around. It's crazy good at debugging plugins. It's absurd how little these things need to look-up docs; half these models are just out the box wildly good at vim. "Open these files on these lines" and now there are four splits with me at the relevant line numbers. Awesome. And it'll explain how to do things & test it out & validate! https://github.com/bigcodegen/mcp-neovim-server That was a little tricky to set-up. I ended up writing nvim-auto-listen, which uses some heuristics to find your project root, and starts a .nvim.socket in that directory. That makes it easy for mcp-neovim-server instances to find. https://github.com/rektide/nvim-auto-listen/ I'm only somewhat getting started, but the workmanship, fit and finish is just outstan

ding on Codecompanion, for a fantastically well put together in vim agentic experience. Works really well driving a headless opencode mcp. Being able to stay in vim but still get a great opencode powered experience has been mind blowingly sick. https://github.com/olimorris/codecompanion.nvim
In Vim 9.2
I'm curious if this was created for/by Zed (which recently added support for it [0]) or if it was pioneered by the Neovim plugin [1] and caught the Zed team's attention? The plugin doesn't seem to have any ties to the Zed editor that I can see, and hopefully if this was the product of discussions among different participants in the space it'll pick up steam quickly.

In Introduction – Agent Client Protocol
this plugin is designed specifically for the llama.cpp server api, if you want copilot like features with ollama, you can use an ollama instance as a drop-in replacement for github copilot with this plugin: https://github.com/bernardo-bruning/ollama-copilot There is also https://github.com/olimorris/codecompanion.nvim which doesn't have text completion, but supports a lot of other AI editor workflows that I believe are inspired by Zed and supports ollama out of the box
In Llama.vim – Local LLM-assisted text completion
