This is close to my approach. I love copilot intellisense at GitHub’s entry tier because I can accept/reject on the line level.

I barely ever use AI code gen at the file level.

Other uses I’ve gotten are:

1. It’s a great replacement for search in many cases

2. I have used it to fully generate bash functions and regexes. I think it’s useful here because the languages are dense and esoteric. So most of my time is remembering syntax. I don’t have it generate pipelines of scripts though.
