Awesome Neovim Plugins That You Must Try

1. codecompanion.nvim

   1 12 4,522 9.9 Lua

   ✨ AI-powered coding, seamlessly in Neovim

   

   If you gravitate to GitHub Copilot Chat but want more model choice, codecompanion.nvim is for you.  It opens a resizable floating panel where you can talk to Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Ollama, or plain OpenAI.  Inline edits (“fix this function” or “add unit tests”) are just a visual-mode mapping away, and every conversation gets stored so you can scroll back for context.

2. Stream

   getstream.io featured

   Stream - Scalable APIs for Chat, Feeds, Moderation, & Video. Stream helps developers build engaging apps that scale to millions with performant and flexible Chat, Feeds, Moderation, and Video APIs and SDKs powered by a global edge network and enterprise-grade infrastructure.

   

3. model.nvim

   2 4 381 6.8 Lua

   Neovim plugin for interacting with LLM's and building editor integrated prompts.

   

   model.nvim is a Swiss-army knife for LLMs.  Instead of binding to one provider, it exposes a prompt-builder API you script in Lua.  Switch from GPT-4 to a local Llama-2 quantization with a single config line, or combine multiple providers in one workflow.  Ideal for privacy-sensitive or budget-conscious teams.

4. neural

   3 13 502 4.5 Vim Script

   AI Vim/Neovim code generation plugin (OpenAI, ChatGPT, and more)

   

   Part of the Dense Analysis ecosystem, neural delivers inline GPT suggestions with near-zero configuration.   Highlight code, run :Neural rewrite optimize, and watch a side buffer populate with an optimized version.  Because it’s built by the maintainers of ALE, it fits naturally alongside lint diagnostics and code actions.

5. GPTModels.nvim

   4 1 73 8.4 Lua

   GPTModels - a multi model, window based LLM AI plugin for neovim, with an emphasis on stability and clean code

   

   GPTModels.nvim opts for a multi-window interface: chat in one split, reference docs in another, and your code remains full-width.  The key selling point is stability; the author focuses on graceful error handling and connection retries so your Insert-mode never freezes waiting on the network.

6. nvim-cmp

   5 257 8,957 7.9 Lua

   A completion plugin for neovim coded in Lua.

   

   If you use Neovim and haven’t tried nvim-cmp, start here.  It’s the de-facto completion framework, written in Lua, feeding on LSP, path, buffer, snippet, and AI sources.  Everything in the popup—icons, ghost text, documentation windows—is customizable, and its community drives dozens of extension sources.

7. lean.nvim

   6 1 370 9.8 Lua

   Neovim support for the Lean theorem prover

   

   Proof assistants are niche—but if you study Lean, lean.nvim feels magical.  It shows goal states in virtual text, recommends tactics, and even auto-formats proofs.  The plugin single-handedly makes Neovim a serious alternative to VS Code in the formal-methods space.

8. nvim-jqx

   7 14 315 3.2 Lua

   Populate the quickfix with json entries

   

   Wrangling a 2-MB JSON file?  nvim-jqx opens a sidebar where you run jq filters, explore nodes, and push results back into your buffer.  No more piping through command-line jq and losing your place.

9. InfluxDB

11. gotests.nvim

    9 1 23 0.7 Lua

    that runs gotests with Neovim

    

    Testing in Go lives on table-driven patterns.  gotests.nvim wraps the popular gotests CLI, letting you generate tests for the function under cursor with a single command.  It even respects build tags and vendor directories.
