Problem

hey. the code autocompletion is pretty slow (for me at least), and sometimes it doesn't understand it should complete at all

Solution

Adding a keybind for automatically calling the code completion model (e.g. Codestreal) for it to finish the line/add a few more IMO this should be an optional one (not set by default)

@badger-py I appreciate the feedback here. I think that I want to address the root cause here before doing extra work to allow a shortcut trigger, but I think in VS Code this is already possible out of the box: https://docs.continue.dev/customize/deep-dives/autocomplete#can-i-configure-a-trigger-key-for-autocomplete

Out of curiosity, how are you running your models, and which IDE are you using?

@sestinj i know you didn't ask me, but this is how i did it for pycharm, which is a bit different than what's on the continue docs btw :

"tabAutocompleteModel": { "title": "Codestral", "provider": "mistral", "model": "codestral-latest", "apiKey": "xxx", "apiBase": "https://codestral.mistral.ai/v1/" },

Activate free autocomplete from mistral and add your api key.

I'm also looking for this method and it would be awesome if he could work in a JetBrains plugin!
