Open-source IDE plugin Pair Flow launches: Emphasizing chunk-by-chunk review to control AI coding pace

IDE extension that keeps me in control of AI-written code

AI guide

Open-source IDE plugin Pair Flow has entered early public preview, designed to help developers stay in control during AI-assisted programming and avoid models generating too much code to review at once. The tool requires confirming an overall plan before incrementally generating single-chunk edits spanning up to three files, modifying source code files only after the developer reviews the diffs and approves each step.

Why it matters

Addressing the pain point of LLMs generating too much code to review in one go, the tool provides a more controlled pair-programming workflow through step-by-step planning and chunk-by-chunk approval.
