Tomosu AI for VS Code

Understand your codebase, identify potential reliability concerns, and improve code with contextual AI assistance—all within VS Code.

Tomosu AI analyzes your project and helps developers recognize code patterns that may affect reliability, performance, maintainability, and production readiness.

It combines project-aware analysis with an AI assistant, allowing developers to review findings, understand unfamiliar code, and receive actionable recommendations without leaving the editor.

Key Features

Automated Project Detection

Tomosu automatically detects relevant project and package files when you open a workspace.

• Identifies supported project structures
• Monitors relevant workspace changes
• Excludes unnecessary folders such as node_modules
• Allows files to be submitted manually for analysis
• Preserves results across VS Code sessions

Codebase Analysis

Get a structured view of your application and surface areas that may require engineering attention.

Tomosu helps you:

• Understand important packages, classes, and methods
• Identify potential reliability and maintainability concerns
• Review code that may require additional validation
• Receive contextual explanations and recommendations
• Track scan progress directly within VS Code

Findings are intended to support engineering review and should be evaluated within the context of your application.

Context-Aware AI Assistant

Ask Tomosu questions about the code you are currently working on.

You can use the assistant to:

• Understand unfamiliar code
• Explore potential production scenarios
• Review errors and implementation choices
• Ask architecture-related questions
• Receive suggestions based on the active file and available project context
