The developer created a custom plugin for the NetBeans IDE to integrate LLM capabilities directly into the development environment. The tool aims to automate coding tasks, reducing the need for manual copy-pasting between browser-based AI chats and the editor.
The plugin features automated backups to prevent code degradation during AI-assisted edits. It also incorporates mental maps and long-term memory files, allowing the LLM to maintain context across project tasks and store user-specific instructions or project-related notes.
The system supports iterative communication between the IDE and the LLM, enabling the AI to request files or documentation independently until a task is ready for final review. The developer also implemented task synchronization via Git to manage workflows.
The project is available as an .nbm package. Installation requires JDK 21 with JavaFX and WebView support, such as Liberica JDK Full. Future development plans include enhancing task management and enabling automated Kanban board updates.
