What it is
An agent inside VS Code that plans, edits files, runs terminal commands and asks permission as it goes.
Who it is for
People who want an agent without leaving their editor.
Why we would pick it
The clearest of the editor agents, and it will happily run a local model, which is rare.
What to watch
Bring-your-own-key means you watch your own spending. Set a limit before you start.
