Show HN: Chat.nvim v1.4.0 – OpenClaw-like AI assistant for Neovim
wsdjeg Friday, March 13, 2026
I just released chat.nvim v1.4.0, an AI chat plugin that runs entirely inside Neovim.
The idea is to turn Neovim into an AI hub instead of just a prompt box. You can chat with LLMs, run tools, and even bridge messages from external chat platforms.
Features:
- Multiple providers (OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, Ollama, etc.) - Tool system (web search, file search, git diff, etc.) - Long-term memory - Multiple sessions - Streaming responses - Chat integrations (Discord, Telegram, Lark, WeCom, DingTalk)
The plugin is written in Lua and designed to be lightweight and hackable.

Feedback is very welcome.
