Re: Coding agent in the IDE: Generate task plan and get plan-aware code completion
#2Hey HN, CodiumAI co-founder here.
We’ve come up with a bit of a different concept for what a coding agent should be. We believe it should work in tandem with a developer inside the IDE. Over time as the tech improves, it will get more and more autonomy.
We’ve been using our coding agent internally and see a 5-10x boost on some tasks.
The agent is available now to Codiumate VS Code users. We want to hear what kind of tasks it works well on and improve it over time to expand the task set. Would love to get feedback.

How is it different than other agents and co-pilots?

Well,
To put it simple: Like copilot, it does have an auto-complete and also chat interface. Different than copilot, it focuses on generating a full code task plan, then having the auto completion work acrroding to your plan, and it check the of quality code.
Like agents, it tries to help you complete a full task, yet,does that in tandem with you, as you work inside tour favorite IDE writing the code with you. In addition, there is focus on code quality, testing, and fetching relevant context from your codebase.

We will support other, I promise

#9What else will it use as a context?
Can it be controlled by the user or is done automatically like other auto complete extensions?

#10What else will it use as a context? Can it be controlled by the user or is done automatically like other auto complete extensions?
The user can choose the relevant context as follows: go to the relevant code part/snippet/files, select, then Ctrl+shift+E, one by one.
In the near future, the agent will suggest these for you, after first indexing your code base
