RiemFlow v0.1 **The Minimalist Focus Routing Engine for Cursor | Zero-Friction Vibe Coding Extension** Tired of reaching for the mouse every time you use Cursor? While AI generates hundreds of lines of code in a second, we are still forced to move our hands off the home row just to click "Accept" or copy-paste terminal errors. **RiemFlow is a minimalist extension that lets you "code with your spinal cord", completely eliminating the last 100ms of physical friction in AI-assisted programming.** ## The Philosophy RiemFlow strictly adheres to the cold, hard laws of **"O(1) Minimalism and Absolute Determinism"**: - **🚫 Zero UI:** No flashy settings panels, no annoying popups. It is an absolutely silent background engine. UI is the source of friction; configuration is the hotbed of entropy. - **⌨️ Zero Mouse:** 100% keyboard-driven. Intent goes straight to the target. Weld your hands to the home row. - **⚡ Left-Hand Zero-Displacement Zone:** Based on ergonomic extremum calculations, we locked the highest-frequency commands to the natural resting drop of the left hand using `Alt + X / V / E`. The thumb stays anchored, achieving absolute O(1) physical collapse. ## ⚡ The O(1) Trinity RiemFlow cuts out 80% of pseudo-demands, focusing strictly on the three pain points you repeat 1,000 times a day: ### 1️⃣ `Alt + X` [Toggle] - **Physical Intent:** X (eXchange) represents crossing and intersection. - **Execution Flow:** Achieve zero-latency ping-pong switching between the **[Main Code Editor]** and the **[AI Chat Panel]**. Keep your hands on the keyboard and shuttle between your "Brain" and "AI" instantly. ### 2️⃣ `Alt + V` [Accept] - **Physical Intent:** V (Verify) acts as a checkmark (✅). - **Execution Flow:** Glance at the AI suggestion, "check" it, and physically Accept the code diff, merging it seamlessly into the source. Completely replaces the `Tab`-and-mouse dance. ### 3️⃣ `Alt + E` [Fetch Error] - **Physical Intent:** E (Error / Extract) stands for error grabbing. - **Execution Flow:** The ultimate friction killer. When the terminal throws a red error, hit this key. The system silently extracts the latest Terminal error log, instantly teleports the focus to the Chat input, and pastes it automatically. One key to trigger AI debugging. --- ## 🚀 Quick Start ### Marketplace Installation (Recommended) 1. Open the Cursor Extensions panel (`Ctrl+Shift+X` / `Cmd+Shift+X`) and search for **"RiemFlow"**. 2. Click Install. 3. **Enjoy zero-friction Vibe Coding.** ### Distribution RiemFlow is currently distributed via Open VSX. Install from the Cursor Extensions panel by searching **"RiemFlow"**. https://open-vsx.org/extension/YuanqiIntelligence/riemflow-cursor --- ## 🔒 Graceful Degradation - **Cursor Exclusive:** This version is deeply optimized for Cursor IDE's native APIs. VS Code is not supported in this release. - **Hotkey Conflict Defense:** If you encounter OS-level hotkey conflicts (e.g., with other software), RiemFlow will NEVER throw an error popup. You can manually override the keybindings via Cursor's native Keyboard Shortcuts preference (search `riemflow`). > *"The best UI is the one you don't even feel."* > > > > Welcome to the Flow. > --- ## 📡 Community & Feedback RiemFlow is built by developers, for developers who despise friction. Join us to shape the future of Vibe Coding: - 👾 **The Flow State Hub:** Join our [Discord Server](https://discord.gg/eFU8wmpwUh) to report bugs, request features, and discuss the endgame of HCI. - 🐛 **Bug Reports & Feature Requests:** Drop feedback in our [Discord Server](https://discord.gg/eFU8wmpwUh) --- ## 🚀 What's Next: The Endgame of HCI v0.1 is just the physical routing.
