As a Sublime Text user I really wish more of these tools worked outside of VS Code.

My first impulse with this new wave of tooling is to poke at the privacy policy, especially given there's only the free trial version available...

https://about.sourcegraph.com/terms/cody-notice seems generally reasonable though, so that's appreciated. Wouldn't mind a more transparency/confirmation on who the partner LLM entities are (Anthropic?), and some verbiage on the downstream impacts of their terms.

Should be interesting to give it a test-run with some embedded projects.

Presumably `Anthropic and OpenAI` according to various documentation.

According to the FAQ,

"Cody has one third-party dependency, which is Anthropic's Claude API. In the config, this can be replaced with OpenAI API."

We use OpenAI for their embeddings API.

We should have this in our docs, but for now you can read this whitepaper if you are interested: https://about.sourcegraph.com/whitepaper/cody-context-archit...
