Nova

The Nova plugin brings AI-powered writing assistance directly into your editor with a privacy first approach. Select text and transform it in place through right click commands - improve clarity, fix grammar or challenge your arguments to find logical gaps. Smart fill uses <!-- nova: instruction --> placeholders throughout documents letting you generate multiple sections at once with streaming output. Chat with cursor awareness writes content exactly where your cursor sits. The plugin supports local AI (Ollama, LM Studio) for complete privacy or cloud providers (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini) using your own API keys - Nova never sees your content.
