vim
by Erick Fuga · ★ 0 · updated 3 days ago
A vim command line for Claude Code: :w and :e keep a draft per session, :q quits (! to force), and any other name runs that slash command, with Tab completion. Opened by the focus chord for the area above the prompt; drawn in the statusline mod's bar.

attachments
thefuga/claude-x
The draft's attachments as chips above the prompt: each pasted picture, pasted text, @-mentioned file or folder and, with the issues mod, @# issue, with a glyph for its type, its path and what it is, and a × to take it out of the draft.
issues
thefuga/claude-x
Finds the repository's GitHub issues as @# is typed in the prompt, as opencode.vim does: a list above the prompt filtered by number or title, picked with a click or Ctrl+X Tab, and each @#N sent with the issue for the model to read.
statusline
thefuga/claude-x
A vim-style status bar in the Claude Code footer: editor mode, permission mode, model, effort, git state, usage and cursor; numbers the draft's lines and keeps the prompt box taller.
stfu
thefuga/claude-x
Drops the whimsical word from the line that runs while Claude works and from the one that closes a turn, leaving the elapsed time, tokens and duration where Claude Code draws them.
syntax
thefuga/claude-x
Colors the prompt's draft as it is typed: its markdown, the code in its fences, and in shell mode the command.
