Idea: Improve Code Application Speed & Reliability (YOLO Mode / Static Button)

[mazuralexandru]

Problem:
Applying AI suggestions can be slow/frustrating.

1. Visual Rendering Delay: The complete markdown response from the AI is often generated quickly. However, the AI Studio UI still visually renders the response (code blocks) for another 10-30 seconds. AI studio's visual animation delay means the user waits even though the actual code diff/result is already available.
2. "Fast Replace" Issues:
   • The button appears immediately once the markdown is ready (which is good), but the ongoing visual rendering of text in AI Studio causes the UI to scroll continuously, making the "Fast Replace" button a "moving target", which is hard to hit.
   • Sometimes (based on my Gemini Coder experience), the "Fast Replace" button doesn't appear at all, forcing me to manually copy the code or resend the prompt entirely.

Suggestion:

1. "YOLO Mode" Option: Add a mode (similar to Cursor IDE) to apply the code immediately once the underlying markdown is generated, bypassing the slow visual rendering animation.
2. Static Button Location: Additionally, move the "Fast Replace" button to a fixed, static location (e.g., top/bottom of response area) so it doesn't jump during the visual rendering.

Benefit:
Significantly faster code application workflow, reduced frustration from chasing the button or waiting for slow animations, and improved reliability for applying changes.

If you like the idea but don't have time, I can try implementing it and send a pull request.

We definitely can't have yolo mode. Platform owners don't like automated scraping and although there is no issue on paper with AI Studio, the service's purpose is testing and experimentation. We want to be nice guys bringing actual real usage to platforms instead of playing them.

Regarding sluggines, I heard they're working on it. Currently the button is in static location at the bottom of each response containing compatible code blocks (with name attribute).

@mazuralexandru By the way full support for open webui (model, temp, system instructions) landed today and you can use it with your Gemini API key, for example. Although "Fast replace" shortcut is not there yet. You can copy to clipboard and use "Apply changes" button from the status bar.

Thanks for the updates, will explore this functionality :)
