/enhance

We all write code, but sometimes it can end up looking a bit messy, repetitive, or even inefficient. Qodo Gen's /enhance command comes to the rescue in your VS Code editor's file mode, acting like a code beautician and optimizer all rolled into one.

Think of /enhance as your code's personal trainer. It takes your code, analyzes it, and suggests improvements to make it cleaner, more readable, and potentially more efficient. /enhance can identify areas for improvement, such as:

  • Duplication: Highlighting repeated code snippets that can be consolidated.
  • Bad Practices: Flagging coding practices that might be inefficient or error-prone.
  • Redundancy: Spotlighting code blocks where logic can be simplified or streamlined.

Prompt: /enhance [ optional additional information ]
