Truxt AI Coach
Analyze your AI coding assistant usage across VS Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot for Xcode, Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and GitHub Copilot CLI — and optionally sync to Truxt SEI for team-wide, Gemini-graded coaching and adoption analytics.
Highlights
The extension is organized into three sections: Observe, Measure, and Improve.
Observe
| Page |

| Coding Moments |
Screenshot gallery from AI coding sessions with story reels, workspace filtering, and progressive image loading |
Measure

Monthly token budget progress with projection (temporarily disabled) |
| Patterns |
7x24 activity heatmap and work-life balance signals |
Improve

| Skill Finder |
AI-powered analysis of repeated prompts to discover custom skill opportunities, plus matching community skills and agents from the open-source catalog |
| Context Health |
Overall context score, agentic readiness checklist, per-harness context provision breakdown, workspace context map (treemap colored by instruction quality), and AI-powered context file review |
| Rule Editor |
Create, edit, and live-test detection rules as markdown with form-based or raw-source editing and AI-assisted drafting |
| Rule Playground |
Interactive REPL for the rule DSL with field browser, function catalog, and metric list |
| Data Explorer |
Browse request and session fields, view distributions, and run ad-hoc filters |
Level Up
| Page |
What it shows |
| Learning Center |
Personalized quizzes and code-comparison rounds generated from your actual usage |
| Achievements |
XP-based progression with Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Diamond tiers |
| Agentic SDLC |
Track how you use AI across the full software-development lifecycle |
| Share |
Generate a shareable stat card and export Markdown/JSON summaries |
Truxt SEI Backend mode
Sign in to your Truxt SEI deployment from the Truxt Backend tab to power the dashboards from your team's server-side analytics — Gemini-graded coaching scores, anti-pattern rules, context health, summaries, and adoption metrics for the signed-in user. Offline mode (local transcript parsing, no account needed) always remains available.

Works in Cursor (and other VS Code forks)
The extension runs in Cursor, VSCodium, and Windsurf. The dashboard and all analytics work fully. Two Copilot-tied integrations (the @aicoach chat participant and Language Model tools) require VS Code with GitHub Copilot and are automatically disabled elsewhere. For AI-powered features in Cursor, run "Truxt AI Coach: Set LLM API Key" and set truxtAiCoach.llm.provider to anthropic or openai.
Chat
In VS Code with GitHub Copilot, type @aicoach in the chat panel for conversational access to all coaching data. Slash commands /summary, /improve, /compare, and /flow give quick access to common analyses. The participant orchestrates multiple backend tools automatically to answer complex questions.
Getting Started
- Open the command palette (
Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P).
- Run Truxt AI Coach: Open Dashboard.
- Use the sidebar to navigate pages. Filter by workspace or harness at the bottom.
- Run Truxt AI Coach: Reload Data to re-parse after new sessions.
- Optional: sign in to Truxt SEI from the Truxt Backend tab for team analytics.
Privacy
Offline mode parses AI session transcripts entirely on your machine; nothing leaves it. Backend mode sends session data only to the Truxt SEI deployment you explicitly sign in to.
