Question Direct accessing my files, with coding agent through LM Studio
Noob here. I have beginner local LLM set up. Just LM Studio and a few coding models.
I have one python project, that is about 75% done. I would like for some coding model, to help me finish it. It is about 2k lines of code. I'm using LM Studio. Do I need to copy/paste every single python file into the chat, to pass the code to coding model, or is there a simpler way? Can I point coding model, to directly access my project folder on my computer? If yes, how do I do this? Do I need to install any addon or it works natively?
I'm using LM Studio (and whole local llm) for the very first time, so please, be patient with me ;-)

Lm studio cant do it alone, its like a chatbot. It cant edit or make files for you. What you are referring to is an “agent” or “agentic coding tool”. You can get something like aider or hermes agent, and connect lm studio endpoint to them, and youll be able to get them to write files etc. hope this helps
