Aide

VS Code extension with AI commands: code conversion between languages, comments, smart paste and batch file processing

PluginMedium risk

nicepkg/aideAuthor: nicepkg

Install

Open VS Code, go to Extensions (Ctrl+Shift+X), search for Aide (nicepkg.aide-pro) and install it. Settings are documented at https://aide.nicepkg.cn.

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

Aide adds a set of AI commands to VS Code. It converts code between languages, adds detailed comments, suggests an improved version of code and variable names with explanations. Smart paste transforms clipboard content, including images, on paste. Batch mode processes multiple files according to custom requirements, and a copy command turns files and folders into a prompt.

Who it is for. VS Code developers who want targeted AI operations on code without a full agent.

Good fit when

  • You need to rewrite a module in another programming language
  • You are reading unfamiliar code and want detailed comments
  • You need to apply the same change across many files
  • You want to quickly turn a folder into a prompt for another chat

Not a fit when

  • You need an autonomous agent that plans and executes tasks
  • You do not use VS Code

Example request

Convert the selected module from JavaScript to TypeScript with Code Convert and add comments to complex functions

Limitations

Works only as a VS Code extension. The README is short; model setup and feature details are on aide.nicepkg.cn.

How to disable. Disable or uninstall the Aide extension in the VS Code Extensions panel.

Security check

  • Sends code to an external model
  • Batch mode changes many files at once

README in short

Aide is a VS Code extension with AI features for working with code. The README lists code conversion, a code viewer helper, code enhancement, smart paste, batch processing, variable renaming, custom AI commands and copy as prompt. It installs from the VS Code marketplace. The project is MIT licensed.
