Let Me Prompt That For You

Answer your friends' questions about VS Code — share a link that types a prompt character-by-character, then opens it in GitHub Copilot Chat.

How it works

1. Type a prompt (e.g. @vscode how do I use hooks)
2. Click Create Share Link — the URL is copied to your clipboard
3. Send the link to someone
4. They see the prompt typed out letter-by-letter, then it auto-launches VS Code with the prompt loaded in Copilot Chat

Features

• Typing animation — shared links replay the prompt with a typewriter effect
• Deep links — opens vscode:// or vscode-insiders:// protocol links directly into Copilot Chat
• Auto @vscode prefix — ensures prompts always include @vscode in the deep link
• VS Code / Insiders toggle — switch protocol with logo buttons; the entire UI theme adapts
• Auto-copy — share links are copied to clipboard on creation
