Chat with a local AI model — right inside VS Code, fully offline, powered by
Ollama. No API keys, no subscription, no code ever
leaving your machine.
No servers, no accounts: pick a model, download it once, and keep coding
with it even with the internet turned off.
Features
Guided setup, no terminal required — the sidebar detects whether
Ollama is running, offers one-click install (Linux, and macOS with
Homebrew), and shows a live progress bar while a model downloads.
39 curated models across 3 categories — Code, General, and Vision —
each with a short description and approximate download size.
Model management in the sidebar — switch between installed models
with one click, delete ones you no longer need, or add any model from the
Ollama library by name.
A real chat panel, opening in a split to the right of the editor —
streamed replies, a working Stop button, and code blocks rendered with
your editor's own theme colors (with Copy / Insert into editor buttons).
Copy or edit any message — copy just the prose of a reply, or edit
and resend one of your own messages.
File & image attachments — attach a text/code file for context with
any model; attach an image only when a vision-capable model is active.
Ask about selected code straight from the editor's right-click menu.
Usage
Click the Local Full AI icon in the activity bar.
If prompted, install Ollama (automatically, or via the official
installer).
Pick a model from the list — Code, General, or Vision — and wait for it
to download.
Click "Open chat" to start talking to it, or select some code and
choose "Ask about selected code" from the right-click menu.
Once a model is downloaded, everything works with no internet
connection at all.
