Continue for AI Coding in VS Code and JetBrains IDEs
Continue adds model-driven chat and editing workflows to supported editors. Use a configured model to explain code or tackle a small edit.
Who it is for
Developers who want to choose a provider and explicitly supply project context.
Limits to check
- Agent mode requires a compatible model and provider. Use chat for analysis if tool use is unavailable.
- Check workspace policy before exposing source files to the selected provider.
Try a sample task
A typed helper has separate branches for an empty array and a list containing empty values.
Explain the existing branches using only the helper and tests. Propose one regression test for each case before editing.
What to verify
Confirm which behavior is intentional. Run the focused tests and make sure the new assertions cover two distinct inputs.
