Initial Setup Steps

To configure your workspace for peak performance:

  1. Import Settings: During installation, select the option to import all VS Code settings, extensions, and configurations.
  2. Enable Codebase Indexing: Go to Settings > Features > Codebase Indexing. Ensure it is active. This allows you to use @Codebase in your prompts, letting the AI search every file in your project.
  3. Set Up your API Key: If you have custom models or want to use your own Claude or OpenAI API keys, insert them under the Models tab.
