[FEATURE] Feature to send prompts from an editing buffer

[skanehira]

Feature Description

I'd like a feature that allows opening an editing buffer in Neovim and sending it to Claude Code using the :w command.

Use Case

It's inconvenient to input long prompts in the terminal, and Claude Code's Vim mode doesn't fully replicate Vim key bindings.
Therefore, I think it would be very convenient if I could edit in a Neovim buffer and send the content.

Proposed Solution

Open an editing buffer and send its contents to the terminal using the :w command.

Hey @skanehira, thanks for opening this issue.

I understand your frustration with the incomplete Vim mode in Claude Code 😅 .
However, this feature should not be part of this plugin.

Copying and pasting the contents of your current buffer into Claude Code (or any other terminal/buffer, given you know the id) can be done using %y | call chansend(getbufvar(luaeval('require("claudecode.terminal").get_active_terminal_bufnr()'), 'terminal_job_id'), @") | ClaudeCodeFocus.

You could also create a custom command using command! ClaudeCodeSendBuffer %y | call chansend(getbufvar(luaeval('require("claudecode.terminal").get_active_terminal_bufnr()'), 'terminal_job_id'), @") | ClaudeCodeFocus into your nvim config.
