OraxPointer Docs

Everything you need to set up OraxPointer and use its AI features. Five minutes from install to first Tab completion.

1 · Setup

Download and run the installer (no admin rights needed).
Create an account — your OraxGate API key is provisioned instantly with a free starter budget.
In OraxPointer open the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) → ORAXPOINTER AI: Sign in with OraxSoft Account…. Your browser opens, you approve, and the key, provider and base URL are configured automatically. (Manual alternative: ORAXPOINTER AI: Set API Key….)

Recommended settings for OraxGate:

{
  "oraxPointerAI.provider": "oraxgate",
  "oraxPointerAI.localOnly": false,
  "oraxPointerAI.oraxgate.baseUrl": "https://oraxgate.com/v1",
  "oraxPointerAI.oraxgate.model": "code",
  "oraxPointerAI.autocomplete.model": "fast"
}

Fully local instead? Install Ollama, pull a code model (e.g. qwen2.5-coder) and set "oraxPointerAI.provider": "ollama". No account needed, nothing leaves your machine.

2 · Tab autocomplete

Ghost-text suggestions appear as you type; press Tab to accept. Powered by a small fast model (~150ms on Orax GPU). Tune it with oraxPointerAI.autocomplete.debounceMs and oraxPointerAI.autocomplete.maxTokens, or disable it per the settings GUI.

3 · AI edits with diff preview

Select code → command palette → ORAXPOINTER AI: Edit Selection… → describe the change. The proposal opens in a diff preview; apply or discard. Every change is undoable with Ctrl+Z.

4 · Composer (multi-file agent)

Command palette → ORAXPOINTER AI: Composer (Multi-file Task)…. Describe the task; the agent plans, reads relevant files, and proposes rewrites/new files (up to 10) in a combined Refactor Preview. Nothing is written until you confirm.

5 · Terminal assistant

Command palette → ORAXPOINTER AI: Terminal Command…. Describe the goal; you get one exact command for your shell with three choices: Run in Terminal, Insert without Running, or Copy. Destructive commands are flagged with a warning. Every proposal and decision is audit-logged.

6 · @workspace chat

In the AI chat, start your message with @workspace to ground the answer in your actual project files. OraxPointer scores your files by relevance, reads only the best matches, and cites them in the answer.

7 · Privacy & security

Local-only by default — cloud providers must be explicitly enabled.
Secret scan — outgoing prompts are scanned for credentials; requests with secrets are blocked.
OS secret store — API keys live in Windows Credential Manager, never in files.
Audit log — every AI action is logged locally for review.
No training — your code is never stored or used to train models.

8 · Account & billing

Your dashboard shows your API key, spend, budget and limits. The detailed usage portal breaks down every request. Budgets reset monthly; contact [email protected] to raise yours.
