| description.long | A research tool that enables language models like GPT-4o or Claude to autonomously identify and fix issues in GitHub repositories or execute custom coding tasks. Built for flexibility and research extensibility by teams at Princeton and Stanford universities. | A deprecated but archived open-source fork of Visual Studio Code that adds AI-powered features including agents, custom model support, and enhanced code editing capabilities. It supports local model hosting and prioritizes data privacy by sending requests directly to providers without data retention. |
