An AI agent for MariaDB inside Visual Studio Code (and Theia-based IDEs such as the MariaDB Cloud
Workbench): a chat panel, native diffs and workspace context. The extension bundles the agent's
CLI, so nothing else needs to be installed.
MariaDB Shell Agent is a MariaDB build of Qwen Code, kept in
sync with upstream.
Features
Chat panel: open it from the MariaDB icon in the activity bar or the command palette
Native diffing: review, edit and accept changes in VS Code's diff view
Auto-accept edits mode: apply changes as they are made
File context: @-mention files, attach files and images, share the active file and selection
Sessions: conversation history and several sessions at once
Requirements
Visual Studio Code 1.96.0 or newer, or a compatible editor
