AM I GOOD AT VIBE

_{🌐 🇰🇷 한국어 README}

A local-first VS Code extension that captures every AI coding conversation you have — terminal CLIs and IDE chat panels alike — and roasts your coding vibe.

AM I GOOD AT VIBE silently records both your terminal AI CLI conversations (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, aider, Copilot CLI — captured live from the integrated terminal) and your IDE chat-panel history (Claude Code IDE, GitHub Copilot Chat, VS Code chat panel, Cursor — read directly from each tool's on-disk session store), plus your code changes and prompt entries. It then hands the log to your own local AI CLI to produce a witty, social-media-shareable analysis: a nickname, a spicy one-line roast, six competency scores, and concrete action items.

100% local. Your source code never leaves your machine. (audit the capture path → · audit the masking regex →)

⚠️ Beta status (v0.1.0) — testers wanted

This is the first public release. I (the author) have only been able to verify it on a single environment:

If you try it, please open an issue with what worked and what didn't — even a one-line "macOS, Claude Code, capture works ✅" is genuinely helpful. PRs for cross-platform fixes are especially welcome (see the Contributing section).

✨ Features

🚀 Install

From the VS Code Marketplace (recommended)

Search "AM I GOOD AT VIBE" in the Extensions view, or install directly: 👉 https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=amigoodatvibe.amigoodatvibe

From source (development)

git clone https://github.com/mykim-aus/AM-I-GOOD-AT-VIBE.git
cd AM-I-GOOD-AT-VIBE
npm install
npm run compile
# Open this folder in VS Code → F5 to launch an Extension Development Host

First run

In the integrated terminal of the new window, run any AI CLI:

claude "write me a hello world function"

The capture file <workspace>/.am-i-good-at-vibe/raw_history.json is created. Then click the AM I GOOD AT VIBE icon in the activity bar → 📊 Analyze, or run AM I GOOD AT VIBE: 🧠 Analyze My AI Coding Vibe from the command palette.

Analysis is delegated to your local AI CLI (claude by default). No data is transmitted to any remote server.

Requirements

• VS Code 1.93+ (Shell Integration is on by default; required for the most accurate capture path).
• A local AI CLI — defaults to claude. Configurable via amigoodatvibe.localCliTool (e.g. codex, gemini).
• Cross-platform. The SQLite-based IDE chat-cache importer (Copilot / Cursor) reads state.vscdb directly via a built-in pure-JS reader, so it works on macOS, Linux, and Windows with no sqlite3 CLI dependency.

🔒 Privacy & limits

• Local storage only: every log line lives at <workspace>/.am-i-good-at-vibe/raw_history.json and the directory is auto-.gitignored.
• Memory-level masking: regex-based masking runs before the disk write — API keys / passwords / .env lines never touch disk in plaintext.
• Other extensions' GUI chats can't be intercepted live: VS Code provides no public API to read other extensions' webview chat panels. We work around this by reading their on-disk SQLite stores (Copilot, Cursor) and Claude Code's session JSONL files when you run Analyze.
• Shell Integration recommended: precise terminal response capture requires VS Code 1.93+ Shell Integration (enabled by default).
• External terminals (Terminal.app / iTerm) aren't captured: they're outside VS Code's process tree. Use the integrated terminal — or the opt-in 🔒 100% Capture Terminal for cases where Shell Integration is unavailable.

⚙️ Configuration

🧩 Supported AI CLIs

Adding a new tool is usually a one-line addition to AI_CLI_PATTERNS in src/util.ts.

🛠 Troubleshooting

No activity in the sidebar?

1. Run AM I GOOD AT VIBE: 🩺 Run Capture Diagnostics from the command palette. Check that Shell Integration is reported as ON.
2. Make sure you're using VS Code's built-in integrated terminal — external terminals (Terminal.app, iTerm, Warp) aren't visible to VS Code.
3. A small dot next to the terminal prompt = Shell Integration is active. If absent, set terminal.integrated.shellIntegration.enabled: true.
4. Still nothing? Open the + New Terminal dropdown and pick AM I GOOD AT VIBE Capture — that profile captures 100% of stdio without needing Shell Integration.

"Local CLI not found"?

The amigoodatvibe.localCliTool setting (default claude) must resolve in the same $PATH that your VS Code-spawned shell sees. Check which claude (or your configured CLI) inside the VS Code integrated terminal.

No Claude Code history imported by Analyze?

The extension reads ~/.claude/projects/<workspace-hash>/*.jsonl. If Claude Code is installed but the directory doesn't exist for your workspace, you haven't used Claude Code in that project yet — capture will start working from your next claude invocation. The vibe analysis still runs on whatever was captured.

Analyze reports "could not find a JSON object"?

The local CLI returned prose instead of pure JSON. Open View → Output → AM I GOOD AT VIBE to see the raw CLI output. Most often this means the system prompt got truncated or the CLI is at a model version that ignores the JSON-only directive; try a stricter CLI flag or a different model.

📐 Analysis output schema

The local CLI must respond with a single valid JSON object matching:

{
  "nickname":       "Claude-Whisperer Black Belt",
  "one_line_pack":  "Catches Claude's bugs like a sniper, never reads their own diff.",
  "overall_score":  82,
  "summary":        "Solid prompting habits with one glaring security gap.",
  "competency_scores": {
    "prompt_quality":       85,
    "context_setting":      72,
    "iteration_efficiency": 78,
    "security_awareness":   55,
    "code_review_habit":    88,
    "tool_diversity":       70
  },
  "strengths":    [{ "title": "...", "evidence": "..." }],
  "improvements": [{ "title": "...", "evidence": "...", "actionable": "..." }],
  "action_items": ["...", "..."],
  "recommended_next_actions": ["...", "..."]
}

🌐 Language adaptive: nickname, one_line_pack, summary, and all evidence strings come out in either English or Korean — picked from the majority language of your user prompts. Sparse / mixed / other-language logs fall back to English.

Full system instruction lives in src/prompt.ts.

🐞 Known limitations

• Primarily verified on macOS / Linux — see Beta status above. Windows IDE-cache import now works via the built-in reader, but broader Windows end-to-end testing is still welcome.
• Interactive REPLs need Shell Integration — without it, REPL turn-by-turn parsing degrades to best-effort line classification.
• The opt-in 100% Capture Terminal isn't a real PTY — raw TUI apps (the claude REPL with full-screen UI, vim, etc.) won't render correctly inside it. Use it for one-shot commands.
• External terminals (Terminal.app, iTerm, Warp) aren't captured — they're outside VS Code's process tree.

🧪 Testing

npm test       # → 100 unit tests for pure helpers + prompt builder + extension cache reader

Tests cover everything that doesn't depend on the vscode module. UI/webview/capture changes need a manual repro inside the Extension Development Host (F5).

🤝 Contributing

This is a v0.1 release with one tester (me, on one machine). Help is wanted on:

• Cross-platform verification (Windows, Linux) — install, run, file an issue with results.
• End-to-end testing of CLIs other than Claude Code (Codex, Gemini, aider, q chat, gh copilot, cody, cursor-agent).
• Adding new AI CLIs — usually a one-line addition to AI_CLI_PATTERNS in src/util.ts.
• Evaluation criteria — refine the 6 competency scores (prompt_quality, context_setting, iteration_efficiency, security_awareness, code_review_habit, tool_diversity) defined in src/prompt.ts. New axes, sharper rubrics, or different weights all welcome.
• Prompt improvements — the analysis system prompt lives in src/prompt.ts. Sharper roasts, more reliable JSON output, or better language detection are great PR material.
• Code review of src/extension.ts and the capture paths (this is being open-sourced for the first time — fresh eyes very welcome).

See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full guide, including the local-first invariant every PR must preserve.
