If you like Claude Code but either (1) prefer an agent that doesn't ask for review on each file edit or (2) miss the IDE for things like reviewing diffs, I'd humbly submit you try out Amp: https://ampcode.com . It has b

Hi there, Cody contributor here—sorry to hear you had a bad experience! In our evals, our DeepSeek variant outperformed previous models and other alternatives. If it's working worse for you know, would be open to sending us some exampl

Author of the post here—as another commenter mentioned, this is indeed a bit dated now, someone should probably write an updated post! There's been a ton of evolution in dev tools in the past 3 years with some old workhorses retiring (

Zoekt was heavily inspired by Google's internal code search, as mentioned in the blog post. The original version of the internal code search is described in the rsc post. Zoekt keeps some of the foundational ideas (e.g., trigram index)

Hello, Sourcegrapher here! We are making some simplifications to eliminate the need for the separate local app install. Should be out in the next month or so. Until then, apologies for the added friction here, we're working hard to smo

Hey, I'm the Sourcegraph CTO. Appreciate the critical feedback here. I suspect that Cody is using "keyword context", which is our fallback when we don't have an index on Sourcegraph that Cody can use (we need to do a bet

Hopefully it's not just on paper :) There are a lot of rough edges still, but we hope to iron them out as quickly as we can. One of our core design principles for Cody is to make it "unmagic". Like, the AI is magic enough, bu

I'll add if folks want to submit a PR to turn on other LLMs (or have Cody talk to the base LLM provider directly, sans Sourcegraph), we're happy to accept those. Literally the only thing preventing us from doing that right now is

Cody is free to use and doesn't strictly require Sourcegraph. It can make use of Sourcegraph APIs (e.g., code search, soon find refs) to improve its context fetching. We hope to integrate other dev tool APIs (e.g., monitoring, tracing,

The best way to accelerate this is to bug https://twitter.com/teej_dv on Twitter. Tell him Beyang sent you and that he thinks he can have an Emacs plugin out faster :P

We don't have autocomplete yet, which is what Copilot is mainly used for. But we're working on it, with the same context-aware mechanisms that provide a quality lift on the Q&A side.

You're a mind-reader! We currently have a notebooks UI (e.g., https://sourcegraph.com/notebooks/Tm90ZWJvb2s6MTg1NA== ), but the plan is to roll Cody into this and make it a super rich UI for learning/understan

I think you make fantastic points (Sourcegraph CTO, here). This is one of the reasons why we focused on code understanding rather than code generation for the initial version of Cody (in contrast to, say, GH Copilot). For code understanding
