what volume of markdown files are we talking?
also, just so i understand this right:
you are looking fir a markdown editor which has a chat window on the side which can look at other files to assist in writing.
is that correct?
which editor do you use right now for editing the files? does it need to support vim-movements? (if u dont know what that is, it doesnt matter)
what exactly would the LM be assisting in? should it be to just read files and respond, or edit them itself aswell, or suggest edits?
suggestion for under 200 files
depending on the amount of files, a simple index and read-tool functionality might be enough. Here is how you would create such an index:These three steps can be done using any coding agent you got lying around using this prompt
This index can then be did into any agent to let it find files quicker, without having to hope for good chunking settings in a RAG pipeline.
all this was written by a human, even if it might not seem as such.
Yes, although I'm interested in what other solutions might be around.
I use a variety of editors. Whichever suits my mood in a given moment. Sometimes helix which is a TUI, sometimes gnome's text editor, sometimes zettlr which is a more "zettelkasten" type knowledge base manager. I'm flexible. If there was a text editor that had this type of functionality built in then that's what I'd use for tasks where I wanted this type of assistance. I don't care about vim short cuts.
I appreciate your proposing a solution. It still feels like there's a yawning chasm in my knowledge. As in, what platform or software can I use to implement tools like you propose? I haven't been able to figure out how to get open webui to provide that sort of functionality, although I suspect that it can.
I think I'm asking, what is the software that connects my selection of markdown files to the LLM. I know you can upload a bunch of text files to open webui but you can't edit in place. it would be like upload edit download upload edit download upload ad nauseum.
