An AI development platform spanning editors, GitHub, the CLI and cloud agents.

AI platform / assistant · GitHub · macOS · Windows · Linux · Web

 

## Suitable workflows

Teams whose code review and pull-request workflow already lives on GitHub.

## Limitations and billing

AI credits and feature access depend on plan and surface. Flex allotments can change.

## Capabilities we verified

Agent workflow · CLI surface · MCP · Rules / instructions · Cloud agents

This is an evidence-based shortlist, not an exhaustive feature inventory. Omitted capabilities have not been checked for this record.

## Pricing & usage

**Paid from $10/mo**

Subscription + GitHub AI credits. The cost of metered usage or an external agent can be separate from the subscription.

## Models & access

Hosted model selection varies by plan and environment.

Verified families: Claude, GPT.

## Project evaluation checklist

1. Open a small, familiar project and confirm that your essential language tooling works.
2. Give the agent one bounded change with an observable acceptance criterion.
3. Review the diff, run the project’s checks and compare the result with your current workflow.
4. Inspect usage after the task. Estimate a month of similar work, including any separate model or agent bill.
