IDE plugin that injects project knowledge bases into AI coding sessions

Browser/IDE extension that attaches a project knowledge base to AI coding tools to prevent hallucinations.

Summary

Build an extension or plugin for popular AI code IDEs (Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) that injects structured project knowledge into prompts or provides a side panel with context. Charge per user or via a partnership/integration revenue share.

Problem

AI IDEs lack reliable, project‑specific context; developers must manually provide the same info repeatedly leading to errors and slowdowns.

Target customer

Users of AI coding IDEs and plugins (individual devs, small teams) who want more reliable outputs and fewer hallucinations.

Solution

A plugin that can fetch or generate a project's knowledge base and automatically attach it to the IDE's context or augment prompts, plus one‑click sync from repos or the SaaS knowledge generator.
