> I paste code back and forth

There is this tool Aider. Takes your prompt, adds code files (sometimes not all of your code files but files it figures relevant) and prepares one long prompt, sends it to an LLM, receives the response, and makes a git commit based on the response. If you rather review git commits, it can save you the back-and-forth copy-pasting. https://aider.chat/

Note that the default mode will automatically change and commit the code, which I found counter-intuitive. I prefer using the architect mode, where it first tells you what it is going to do, so you can iterate on it before making changes.
