Description

LocalPilot AI turns Google Chrome into a private AI coding assistant inside the native Side Panel. Open any local project folder directly with the Web File System API, and pair-program with Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, or OpenAI ChatGPT using your own API keys (BYOK). Review every AI code suggestion through a side-by-side visual diff before saving to disk, with automatic backups and secret masking. No heavy desktop IDEs, zero middleman servers, and total privacy for your code.
