Swiftask code is an AI coding assistant for VS Code, built by swiftask.ai. Chat from the side panel, point the agent at your workspace, and let it read files, edit code, run commands, and search your project — with your approval before anything sensitive runs.
Your sessions stay local on your machine. Swiftask code connects to the Swiftask model gateway (Claude Sonnet and other models) so you get a capable agentic pair programmer without leaving the editor.
Core features
Agent chat — Side-panel sessions with streaming responses, history, and collections.
Built-in tools — Read, edit, and write files; search with grep and glob; run shell commands; manage task checklists.
Workspace context — @-mention files, folders, and terminals so the agent sees what you point at.
Add to chat — Send editor selections to the chat from the context menu.
Image attachments — Attach images in compose; click thumbnails to preview in the editor area.
Agent edits review — Keep or undo file changes from the editor title bar when the agent edits your code.
Clarify tool — The agent can ask structured questions when a task is ambiguous, then continue in the same turn.
Todo tracking — In-chat checklist dock for multi-step tasks the agent is working through.
