hero-image

Any model for any team

Use AI models like Claude Sonnet out of the box, or bring your own key to access models from Azure, Anthropic, Google, Ollama, OpenAI, and OpenRouter.

Model Selector

An expert on your codebase

Your codebase is indexed locally and remotely (on GitHub) to understand what's relevant, enabling fast, context-aware interactions.

Context Selector

AI that works the way your team does

Personalize interactions using custom instructions and reusable prompt files tailored to your workflows, tools, and projects.

Custom Instructions

Use AI features in VS Code for free

No trial. No credit card required. Just your GitHub account.

Agent mode

Tackle complex, multi-step tasks. Agent mode reads your codebase, suggests edits across files, runs terminal commands, and responds to compile or test failures — all in a loop until the job is done. Further refine agent mode to fit your team's workflows with VS Code extensions and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.

Build with agent mode

Next edit suggestions

VS Code predicts your next move as you code. Use the Tab key to accept AI-powered suggestions right in your editor. It intelligently recommends what to change — and where — based on the edits you're already making.
