Open File in Kitty + Neovim

Open the last mentioned file path in neovim, inside a new kitty window pane (split within the current OS window).

Workflow

1. Find the last file path mentioned, read, edited, or written in recent conversation
2. Split into <dir> (parent directory, absolute) and <name> (filename only)
3. Run:

bash -c "kitty @ launch --type window --cwd <dir> nvim <name>" &

Rules

• --type window — new kitty window pane inside current OS window. NOT --type tab. NOT --type os-window.
• --cwd <dir> — always set, so relative paths and :! commands in nvim work naturally.
• Pass plain <name> to nvim (not absolute path), since cwd is already set.
• Wrap in bash -c "..." & so it backgrounds cleanly and does not block.

Notes

• If no file was recently mentioned, ask the user which file to open.
• For multiple files: pass them all as args after nvim (still inside the same --cwd).
