Our verdict

CodeChatGPT points ChatGPT at a selected folder so its answers reference the actual code in a project rather than generic examples, and conversations can go back and forth on a specific function or bug in real time. Training can be scoped to a particular project, language or framework as needs shift. Getting the initial setup right takes some time, and very large or complex codebases can still be too much for it to grasp fully, so results are not always reliable.
