Miles Development Tools

Breck Chat is a VS Code extension that provides two main features:

1. Quick access to Breck package documentation through natural language prompts
2. A visual GUI for running Breck CLI commands

Requirements

• Authentication via a Striven asset to use the Chat feature.
• The breck CLI on your PATH to use the command runner (installed with your Breck project's dependencies).

Features

Documentation Search

To find docs, simply write @breck /docs <your prompt>.

Breck CLI Command Runner

Run Breck CLI commands (generate, model, module, update) from a user-friendly GUI:

• Open a Breck workspace
• Open the Miles Development Tools view in the activity bar
• In the Commands tree, expand generate and pick a schematic, expand model and pick a subcommand, or click module/update
• Fill out the form with your options; a live command preview updates as you type
• Click "Run" (or "Dry Run" for generators) to execute the command in a task terminal

The command list and every form field come from breck --schema-json, so the UI always matches your installed CLI. Array-type fields accept comma-separated values.

Common Issues

1. No commands showing:
   • Make sure the breck CLI is installed and on your PATH
   • Verify the packages are installed (npm install) so schematic inputs can be discovered

Release Notes

v0.0.2 is the initial release. This release includes a single command, @breck /docs <your prompt>.

v0.0.3 fixed an error when submitting an empty prompt.
