About

Maintained by Markuss SauleFirst published 2026-04-042 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

An AI copilot for R users in 'RStudio' and Posit workflows with active-editor, workspace, object, console, plot, and git-aware context. Provides statistical helpers for interpreting lm() and glm() models, stages code and file actions before execution, drafts reproducible 'Quarto' content, and connects to official provider APIs or CLIs for 'OpenAI', 'GitHub Copilot', 'Gemini', and 'Anthropic'.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash

sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-ravel

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
