Agentic coding deserves more than a chat box bolted onto VS Code

(github.com)

This might be one of the strangest product video editing decisions I've seen.

Yeah, it has me wondering why this project is trying to entertain me with a video.
reply
Has there ever been an IDE demo video with better music?
reply
The intro to Erlang: The Movie has a pretty boss anthem. (if you squint, Erlang/OTP is kind of an IDE, when you live in the REPL) https://youtu.be/xrIjfIjssLE

Is this just a vibe-coded IDE? The tagline "Modular IDE designed for agentic coding" and description don't really summarize what this does differently, and I'm not looking at a video to figure that out.
reply
The video seems to be about mushrooms.
reply
Like with most full products that are vibecoded, there's very little to no originality in this - just strange packaging of things that already exist.
reply
Repackaging of existing concepts is kind of just what a lot of new tech products are, right?
reply
But the ones that repackage as part of improvement are the ones that usually stick. Repackaging as a lesser product only works if your brand strength is being cheap.
reply
no argument there.

if someone would give me 60bn to put a chatbox in vscode I would happily do it

So, Antigravity 2.0 then?

reply
Cursor 3 as well.
reply
Antigravity 2.0 looks exactly like codexia (as of 0.26, I forked it)
reply
So the defaults are Codex and Claude? I use neither.

It would appear that the author of this posted a big pile of AI slop describing project and was heavily downvoted.
reply
Am I the only one who is getting tired of all the AI stuff in VS Code? I just want to open my ide and not be greeted by a dozen AI prompts begging to have it code something for me.

Its such a distraction. I want less of this stuff not more of it.
