VSCode extension for OpenAI

OpenAI Helper

This extension helps you to use OpenAI products in Visual Studio Code

⚠️ For now only Codex usage is recommended since the ChatGPT API that this project uses is unofficial, you might face 403 or 429 HTTP errors with ChatGPT strategy and maybe future breaks if OpenAI change things. Also some features/fixes of newer versions of the API module requires Node.js >=18 but latest VSCode version runs Electron with Node 16 and it cannot be changed. A workaround may written but I see that unnecessary since there is no official API (transitive-bullshit/agentic#137). Maybe I'll reimplement ChatGPT strategy this later when official API is out (or be lazy enough not to)

Usage

• You can access commands via pressing CMD + Shift + P (CTRL + Shift + P for Windows)
• If you set OpenAI Api Key then you'll be using Codex
• If you set ChatGPT Credentials then you'll be using ChatGPT
• To change between, just empty the credentials of other one by setting them empty.

Set OpenAI Api Key

You can get your api key from here: https://beta.openai.com/account/api-keys

Set ChatGPT Credentials

You can get your credentials from Developer Tools -> Application Tab -> Cookies and then get session token and clearance token from there. Reason why: see warning above for more info.

Refactor Selection

• Select the function or code piece you want to refactor, search for OpenAI Helper: Refactor Selection command, press enter
• After that you'll see wait text for your selection
• You'll get the response generated after a while (depending on the response time of ChatGPT/Codex APIs)

Image Generation

• Search for OpenAI Helper: Image Generation command, press enter
