Code editor
Context Code includes a real code editor, not a viewer: tabs, per-language highlighting, autocomplete and diagnostics via LSP, change comparison and project run buttons. Plus an advantage no standalone editor has: the agent works on the same files you see.
The essentials
Section titled “The essentials”- File Explorer in the side panel (“Show the explorer”); open files with a double click or from the quick search (“Find a file by name…” — see Search).
- Tabs to work on several files at once; document viewers (PDF, Word, Excel, images) also open as tabs — see Documents.
- Save with
Ctrl+S; Format document and Format on save are available as commands. - Ask the AI about the selection: select code and ask the agent directly about that snippet.
Autocomplete and diagnostics (LSP)
Section titled “Autocomplete and diagnostics (LSP)”The editor talks to language servers (LSP) to give you autocomplete, errors and warnings just like an IDE, across several languages. If you open a file whose language server isn’t installed, the app tells you and offers to install it — no wrestling with the terminal.
Reviewing the agent’s changes (diff)
Section titled “Reviewing the agent’s changes (diff)”When the agent edits files, you can review its changes as diffs: what was there before and what’s there now, file by file. It’s the natural companion to the Ask for approval mode.
Running and building the project
Section titled “Running and building the project”The app ships dedicated run and build buttons, with support for different project build targets. Output runs in the built-in terminal, in plain sight for both you and the agent.
