Why we included this project

Emacs users get Codeium's AI inline completions through this package without switching editors. It is a thin Emacs Lisp client that hooks into the standard completion-at-point machinery, so it works with company-mode, corfu, or the built-in completion UI instead of imposing a new interface. Setup takes a few steps: install the package, run codeium-install to pull down the language server binary, and add codeium-completion-at-point to your completion functions. The client exposes the underlying API calls and lets you override the document text sent to the server, which gives you some control over latency and what leaves your machine. It is a client for a proprietary backend, so you trade full self-hosting for a free, fast service that needs an account and network access.
