The thing I would like automated is highlighting a function in my code then ask the AI to move it to a new module-file and import that new module.

I would like this to happen easily like hitting a menu or button without having to write an elaborate "prompt" every time.

Is this possible?

I think most language servers have a feature like this right?

Moving a function or class? Yes. But moving arbitrary lines of code into their own function in a new module is still a PITA, particularly when the lines of code are not consecutive.

So is moving a function or class possible? What actions you need to take to accomplish that? Thanks

This is supported natively by most IDEs today.

At least Pycharm is good at it.
