- It's powerful: ask LevelCode to keep working until it reaches a condition and it will.
Our users regularly use LevelCode to implement new features, write unit tests, refactor code,write scripts, or give advice.
Knowledge Files
To unlock the full benefits of modern LLMs, we recommend storing knowledge alongside your code. Add a knowledge.md file anywhere in your project to provide helpful context, guidance, and tips for the LLM as it performs tasks for you.
LevelCode can fluently read and write files, so it will add knowledge as it goes. You don't need to write knowledge manually!
Some have said every change should be paired with a unit test. In 2024, every change should come with a knowledge update!
Tips
- Type '/help' or just '/' to see available commands.
- Create a
knowledge.mdfile and collect specific points of advice. The assistant will use this knowledge to improve its responses. - Type
undoorredoto revert or reapply file changes from the conversation. - Press
EscorCtrl+Cwhile LevelCode is generating a response to stop it.
Troubleshooting
