Is there a way to automatically remove duplicate functions in VSCode?

You might want to look into Python linters. They can detect duplicate function definitions for you, which should save some time.

I'm a bit puzzled. If you're creating a new version of a function, shouldn't it replace the old one? You could just use the same name or rename instances easily in VSCode. A quick 'Find + Replace All' does the trick. Just click the magnifying glass in the left menu and reveal the replace option next to the search box. That way, it’s pretty seamless!

Consider using a linter instead of relying on AI for code generation. It’ll help you keep track of your functions better and manage your code quality effectively.

Honestly, if you're just adding AI-generated functions and aren't sure whether they already exist, maybe you should rethink your approach. A tool might not be the solution to this problem. It’s essential to understand the functions you’re working with.

Honestly, why stress about duplicates? Just vibe-code! Focus on writing clean code when you can. If you seriously consider each function, you'll likely remember if you've written something similar before. Develop with intention, and don’t let AI do all the work. If you've got real duplicates, most IDEs will flag them, but if they have the same logic even with different implementations, it’s trickier to track down duplicates.
