Summary

Tab'd is a new extension for IDEs that tracks and visualizes AI-assisted coding and clipboard operations, providing detailed metadata about AI edits and copy-paste origins. This metadata can be shared within teams and highlighted during code reviews, promoting greater transparency and accountability in AI-assisted software development. The tool reflects a growing emphasis on traceability and responsible use of AI in coding workflows.

I'm working on Tab'd, a GitHub Copilot / Windsurf / Kiro extension which tracks and visualizes AI-assisted coding and copy-paste operations in codebases, and optionally shares that metadata with teams to help maintain accountability. Tab'd shows detailed metadata about AI edits and clipboard origins, and allows users to distribute that metadata within code repositories. If present, the associated browser extension can highlight these edits during GitHub PR review online or within the IDE.
