CodeBuddy IDE deeply integrates the entire workflow of design, coding, debugging, and deployment, aiming to deliver a seamless AI collaboration experience for developers through highly automated workflows.
Basic Capabilities
CodeBuddy covers the entire lifecycle from initial ideation to code deployment:
Intelligent Conversation: Provides instant technical consultation, supporting multi-turn conversations and complex logical reasoning.
Code Completion: Provides millisecond-level code prediction, deeply adapted to the project's private style.
Figma to Code: Converts UI design drafts into maintainable, high-quality frontend code with one click.
Component Library Integration: Provides enterprise-grade UI components and supports adjusting styles and layouts through natural language.
Intelligent Diagnostics: Automatically identifies potential bugs and performance bottlenecks, and provides one-click fix solutions.
Features
CodeBuddy Code Completion Pro: Introduces NES (Next Edit Suggestions) forward-looking editing capabilities, redefining intelligent completion. Learn more. Core Highlights: Goes beyond the cursor to anticipate the next step.
Breaking through the limitations of traditional completion, NES not only completes the current line but also predicts upcoming coding intentions, automatically providing intelligent suggestions for related subsequent code blocks (such as the next line of logic or the end of a function body), truly delivering a forward-looking experience where one edit anticipates ten.
Seamless Integration: Enabled by default and triggered at your discretion.
The feature is enabled by default and supports both automatic prediction and manual triggering. Manual trigger shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+Enter, which summons inspiration with one click for a seamless coding flow.

Context Reference: Enter @ in the input box to reference a file, folder, or the current code snippet.
Multimodal Input: Supports directly pasting screenshots or importing Figma links for UI development.
Intelligent Workflows
CodeBuddy comes with multiple professional modes preset and supports custom extensions to meet different development needs:
1. Core Interaction Patterns
Ask (Conversation Mode): Focuses on technical Q&A and concept explanations without directly modifying code. It is ideal for quickly obtaining ideas or looking up APIs.
Craft (Agent Mode): Focuses on code generation and local modifications within the current context. It responds quickly and is ideal for precise function writing or small-scale refactoring.
Plan (Plan Mode): Automated mode. It is suitable for cross-file modifications or complex feature development. The AI first creates a task list (Plan), and after your confirmation, it autonomously performs reading, modification, and environment checks. Learn more about Plan Mode. 2. Custom Agent
In addition to the preset modes, you can also click + Create Agent to customize a dedicated AI agent based on specific business logic or work habits, achieving a higher degree of process automation. Learn more about Custom Agent. Advanced Features
The power of CodeBuddy lies in its configurable and extensible "brain":
Memory (Memory Preferences): Automatically records your preferences and key project context, making AI increasingly intelligent over time. For more information, see Memory. Rules: Enforce AI compliance with specific architectural design or coding standards by customizing .codebuddy/rules. For more information, see Rules. Skills: A set of professional instructions encapsulated for specific scenarios (such as security auditing and performance stress testing) through user/project-level configuration of .codebuddy/skills/. For more information, see Skills. MCP (Model Context Protocol): An open protocol that supports integrating third-party tools (such as databases and real-time search) as auxiliary tools for AI. For more information, see MCP. Custom Model (API Integration): Supports custom models (API integration) to enable richer AI capabilities. For more information, see Models. Custom Commands (Personalized Adaptation): Supports personalized development habits, enabling code completion to align with individual or team habits and specific business scenarios. For more information, see Custom Commands. Integrations
CodeBuddy is deeply integrated with mainstream development ecosystems, achieving a one-stop development loop:
Cloud Service Integration: Natively supports CloudBase, Supabase, and CloudStudio, enabling DMC and one-click preview deployment.
Frontend Component Integration: Supports generating maintainable frontend code that complies with enterprise-grade design systems by selecting standardized component library specifications.
Design Component Integration: Supports importing design files from the built-in Figma into the IDE through the Add from Figma button, and accurately converting Figma design files into production code. Learn more. Tip: You can switch between Ask, Craft, and Plan modes at any time based on task complexity. For tasks that require extensive code changes, try using Plan mode!
