What it is

Continue.dev is an open source AI coding assistant for VS Code and JetBrains, plus the Continue Hub where developers discover and share building blocks for AI agents: models, rules, prompts, docs, and MCP servers. Instead of locking you to one provider, it lets you wire up your own assistants from mix-and-match components and run them inside your editor or from the command line.

How to access / install

Visit the website and hub: https://www.continue.dev/
Install the IDE extensions from the VS Code Marketplace (“Continue”) or the JetBrains Marketplace.
Use the CLI for terminal and headless/agent workflows:

npm i -g @continuedev/cli
cn

Browse and remix shared blocks (models, MCP servers, rules, prompts) on the Continue Hub, then reference them in your config.yaml assistant definition.

Good for

Teams that want an open, customizable alternative to closed AI assistants.
Developers assembling custom agents from reusable models, rules, and MCP servers.
Anyone who works across both VS Code and JetBrains and wants one consistent setup.
Sharing standardized assistant configs and context blocks across a team via the hub.
