How can I talk w my codebase while I am away from my desk?

by
Is there a way I can chat with an LLM that has my entire codebase while I am away from my dev system? Reason I ask, I have a manual labor job while I develop Meadow Mentor on my nights and weekends. When I’m at work I do most of my thinking and planning for the work I do at home on my dev system. Sometimes while at work I’d like to chat w a coding LLM to explore design, architecture, etc so that when I get home I’m more efficient w my time. Is this where my own private MCP server can be helpful? Any other easy to implement solutions?

This is actually a really good question! Right off the bat some ideas are

  • Have some sort of AI plugged into your GitHub that can access your project's Repo and help you plan next steps or map out what to do next.

  • Get a Mac Mini and then do like a remote desktop that allows you to use a voice LLM (maybe something like @Aqua Voice x @Alter x @ChatGPT by OpenAI ) to use mostly voice to interact

  • There could be some tools that do something like you're looking for already?

Since you're just exploring and not really taking action while away I think a GitHub x LLM implementation would make the most sense. You might be able to vibe code it!

You can interact with your codebase remotely using tools like Talk-Codebase, which allows you to query and analyze your codebase using Large Language Models (LLMs). It supports offline code processing with models like LlamaCpp and GPT-4-All, or you can use OpenAI if privacy isn't a concern. Additionally, if you're using Visual Studio Code, its chat feature lets you ask questions about your codebase and even apply changes directly from the chat interface
