plan -> confirm -> diff -> accept -> ship
An AI coding agent for VS Code. Reviews your code, proposes exact changes, waits for your approval before writing a single byte.
// demo
No silent rewrites. Every change is a reviewable diff you approve before anything touches disk.
// features
Scans only your source files and skips venv, node_modules, and build artifacts every time.
Colored line-by-line diffs with line numbers. Accept, modify, or reject per file.
All diffs generated simultaneously. Multi-file refactors run fast instead of blocking.
Simple tasks run instantly. Complex refactors get an ordered execution plan you approve first.
Maintains file reads, diffs, and approvals across the entire session without dropping context.
Runs shell commands inline, streams output, and shows exit codes with full visibility.
// workflow
A strict human-in-the-loop pipeline. The agent proposes, you decide.
