Continue
Open-source coding agent distributed as a CLI, VS Code extension, and JetBrains plugin. Repository is read-only after the final 2.0.0 release.
Continue is an open-source AI coding agent available in three forms: a command-line tool, a VS Code extension, and a JetBrains plugin. The CLI is published on npm as @continuedev/cli, and the VS Code extension is distributed through the VS Code Marketplace and the OpenVSX Registry.
The README states that the continuedev/continue repository is no longer actively maintained and is read-only. The final 2.0.0 release covered the VS Code extension, the CLI, and the JetBrains plugin. That release removed anonymous telemetry and pulled out authentication, along with bug fixes. The README recommends the CLI over the JetBrains plugin.
Configuration and customization are documented at docs.continue.dev. The tool is licensed under Apache 2.0, so it suits developers who want an AI coding agent they can run from the terminal or an IDE, or who want a codebase to fork and build on now that upstream maintenance has ended.
