AI, Codex, and VS Code

AI Inside LoFTP

LoFTP includes practical AI-oriented workflows for development and server work.

Current focus:

  • explaining files
  • reviewing compare results
  • helping with search and file understanding

The goal is not generic chat. The goal is faster decisions over files, configs, logs, and transfers.

Codex-Oriented Workflow

LoFTP already includes Codex-oriented usage patterns inside the application, especially around:

  • explain file
  • compare review
  • sync review
  • transfer review

These workflows are intended to help with:

  • understanding files
  • spotting risky changes
  • reviewing transfer intent before action

Planned API / Add-On Direction

The next logical step is a local control API or Codex add-on layer that would let Codex work with saved LoFTP hostings without exposing credentials in chat.

Intended direction:

  • LoFTP stores credentials and connection state
  • Codex works through safe local tools
  • secrets do not need to be pasted into conversations

VS Code Integration

LoFTP can open selected local files and folders directly in VS Code.

This is useful for:

  • jumping from file browsing to editing
  • opening project folders quickly
  • moving between remote transfer work and local development work
