(•‿•) Everything in one extension

More than autocomplete.
A whole AI suite with a face.

From quick questions to fully autonomous agents that drive your workspace, screen, and browser — ASKII covers the entire spectrum, and keeps it fun.

⇄ (☆ω☆)

Multi-Platform AI

Bring your own model — Ollama, LM Studio, OpenAI, Anthropic, opencode Go, or ASKII Cloud. Run fully local and free with Ollama/LM Studio, or plug in a cloud key. One extension, six providers, zero lock-in.

💬 (◕‿◕)

AI Inline Explanations

Get concise, AI-generated explanations of your code inline. Toggle between helpful (practical coding advice), funny (humorous comments), or wiki mode. To help you on your day to day coding sections.

📖 (・∀・)

Wiki (Docs Context)

Point ASKII at a folder of .md files and it builds a local vector index (pure JS, no native deps). Relevant chunks are automatically injected as context into the agents commands — so your AI always knows your docs.

✎ (｡◕‿◕｡)

Natural Notes & Memory

Tell ASKII anything — a quick note, a screenshot, a reminder, a half-formed idea — in plain natural language. It stores it for you and can search or surface it later, so you never lose the thing you told it "just a minute ago." Your own searchable second brain, right inside the editor.

⌨ ( ˘ω˘ )

Inline Code Completion

Ghost-text suggestions inside any open code file. Press Tab to accept, Esc to dismiss. Uses the same LLM platform and model you've configured for the rest of ASKII — no extra subscription required.

✦ (★^O^★)

Commit Message Generator

A one-click button in the Source Control toolbar reads your staged (or working-tree) diff and writes a generated commit message straight into the input box — powered by the same LLM behind inline completion. Ship faster, commit smarter.

(╯°□°）╯ Eight command modes

Chat, edit, and act — autonomously.

Every mode is one chord away: Ctrl+Shift+K then a letter. Destructive actions always ask first; reading never does.

(￣ヮ￣) ⌃⇧KA

Ask ASKII

Select code (or don't) and ask anything. Answers stream token-by-token into a theme-aware Markdown panel with multi-turn follow-ups and copy-to-clipboard.

(•̀ᴗ•́)و ⌃⇧KE

ASKII Edit

Describe a change and the selection (or whole file) is rewritten. A side-by-side diff opens instantly, with an Undo button to revert in one click.

ヽ(•‿•)ノ ⌃⇧KD

ASKII Do

An agentic workspace loop: lists folders, reads files, greps, runs shell, then creates / edits / renames / deletes — with automatic .askii/backups/ and confirmation on every write.

(⌐■_■)👆 ⌃⇧KC

ASKII Control

Screen automation. ASKII screenshots your display, a vision LLM picks the next click / type / drag, then a dual-phase zoom refines the exact pixel. Multi-monitor & HiDPI aware.

(◕‿◕)🌐 ⌃⇧KB

ASKII Browse

Browser automation via Puppeteer using your own Chrome. Navigate, click, type, scroll, and click-by-text across real pages — visible or headless.

(＾▽＾)⑂ ⌃⇧KG

ASKII Git

Reads your staged diff to write a clean Conventional-Commits message into the box.

φ(．．) ⌃⇧KN

ASKII Note

A place to ramble, jot ideas, and set reminders — so you never forget anything. Tell ASKII to remember it, and it will bring it back when you need it.

(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ ⌃⇧KR

ASKII Generate

Scaffold from scratch: generate tests, write docs, bootstrap whole projects, and more — all from a single prompt.

The same brain, in your terminal.

ASKII ships as a standalone CLI on npm with full feature parity — the extension and the CLI share all their core code, so everything works identically everywhere.

  • Same --platform, --model, --url & API-key flags
  • Environment-variable configuration for CI & scripts
  • Bundled to a single file with esbuild — no native deps
  • Pure-JS RAG, shell-based automation: it just runs

$ npm install -g askii-cli

$ askii ask "explain this regex" < pattern.txt

$ askii edit --platform anthropic main.py

$ askii do "scaffold a REST endpoint"

(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ same power, no editor required
