So the defaults are Codex and Claude? I use neither.
Codex and Claude are the defaults for now but it is built to use any CLI of your choice via the terminal.
Agentic coding deserves more than a chat box bolted onto VS Code

#42Am I the only one who is getting tired of all the AI stuff in VS Code? I just want to open my ide and not be greeted by a dozen AI prompts begging to have it code something for me. Its such a distraction. I want less of this stuff not more of it.
It sounds like the sweet call of Vim is beckoning you.

#43I couldn't even get the video to play. Nonetheless I'm sort of meta excited by this product. It reminds me of the apocryphal "customers want a faster horse" thing associated with Henry Ford. Chat bolted onto an IDE was a great starting point, but if AI is writing the code, do even need an IDE? This doesn't go that far but it sounds wacky enough that it least it's trying to break out of the IDE mold. Not idea what we…
Sorry about the video bug, Github's manual on file attachments mentions video codecs being browser specific. I will be sure to use the most widely supported codec in the next update.
I definitely relate to a lot of your thinking here, I feel like it will just take a handful of years of experimenting with these new tools to settle on what really works. That was part of my rationale for making it more modular, as I continue to learn and grow with the tooling I can easily update my IDE to be super personalized.

#44This might be one of the strangest product video editing decisions I've seen.
Haven’t commented in years but I came to say this is an incredible video. I think the uncanny valley of this video as a makeshift 90s infomercial captures the audience and sells the product! Caveat: vaporwave is one of my favorite genres so take this with a grain of salt.
I am very glad you enjoyed it. I am definitely a fan of uncanny valley vibes too, maybe that Backrooms movie subconsciously influenced me when I made the demo. With all of my open source projects I try to have as much fun with it as possible and I definitely had fun making that video.

#45It would appear that the author of this posted a big pile of AI slop describing project and was heavily downvoted.
You are being a Devin downer.
