Magenta.nvim – AI coding plugin for Neovim focused on tool use
I've been developing this on and off for a few weeks. There are a few videos on the README page showing demos of the plugin. I just shipped an update today, which adds: - inline editing with forced tool use - better pinned context management - prompt caching for anthropic - port to node (from bun) Check it out!

In plain words
Magenta.nvim is an AI coding plugin for Neovim that emphasizes tool use capabilities. It enables inline editing with forced tool use, manages pinned context, and supports prompt caching for Anthropic models. The plugin recently added a Node.js port and improved context management features. It is designed for developers using Neovim who want AI-assisted coding with emphasis on structured tool interactions.
