Last year I wrote a VS Code plugin [1] that lets you chat with an LLM in a Jupyter notebook on your own machine to do Code Interpreter-like things. It uses Simon Willison’s llm command, which you can configure to use whatever llm you like.

I think running the code that way is better since the notebook is free and under your own control, but a weakness is that there’s no sandbox. Perhaps these approaches could be combined?

I’m not working on it anymore, but perhaps someone wants to pick it up.

Why aren't you working on it any more? Sounds cool.


I was distracted by other things and stopped working on anything to do with notebooks. For my current project, I’m just using Github Copilot for autocomplete, along with GPT4 for asking questions about TypeScript.

But notebooks are pretty cool for writing tutorials and maybe when I want to write a tutorial, I’ll get back to it?


I have never integrated notebooks into any of my workflows, but it sounds fun. Thanks for sharing, I'll check out your code.
