VibeAtlas - Make AI Coding Agents Actually Work
The reliability infrastructure for AI coding. 70% of AI agent runs fail. We fix context overflow, attention drift, and missing guardrails with a trained governance model, semantic search, and intelligent plugins that auto-activate based on your project.

The Problem
70% of AI coding agent runs fail or go off-track.
Your AI agents break because of three infrastructure problems:
- Context overflow: Token limits hit mid-task, agent loses everything
- Attention drift: Long sessions cause focus to wander from critical code
- No guardrails: Agents generate insecure code, leak secrets, violate policies
Debugging is impossible. Costs explode. Tasks don't complete.
The Solution
VibeAtlas is the reliability layer that sits beneath your AI coding tools. We don't replace Claude, Copilot, or Cursor - we make them actually work.
Result: 95% task completion rate.

What Makes VibeAtlas Different
1. Trained Governance Model (Not Just Rules)
We trained a Small Language Model specifically for AI coding governance:
| Capability |
Details |
| Latency |
<5ms p95 (real-time, doesn't slow you down) |
| Coverage |
OWASP LLM Top 10 + CWE Top 25 (53 violation categories) |
| Fallback |
4-layer chain: ML Model -> Rules -> Pattern Match -> Safe Default |
| Actions |
ALLOW, BLOCK, FLAG, ESCALATE (configurable policies) |
The model catches:
- Prompt injection attempts (direct, indirect, jailbreaks)
- Secret/credential exposure in generated code
- SQL injection, XSS, command injection patterns
- HIPAA, SOC2, GDPR compliance violations
- System prompt leakage attempts
This isn't regex matching. It's a trained model that understands code context.
2. Semantic Search + ML Intelligence
We use machine learning throughout the system:
| Component |
Technology |
Purpose |
| Code Search |
Hybrid search (BM25 + Vector + AST) |
Find code by meaning, not just keywords |
| Embeddings |
MiniLM (384-dim), UniXcoder planned |
Semantic understanding of your codebase |
| Cost Prediction |
Linear regression model |
Predict resource usage before loading features |
| Session Health |
Velocity prediction (75% accuracy) |
Warn before you hit token limits |
The hybrid search combines three signals with Reciprocal Rank Fusion:
- BM25 (30%): Traditional keyword relevance
- Vector (50%): Semantic similarity via embeddings
- AST (20%): Code structure awareness
Result: 40%+ better search accuracy than keyword-only.
3. Plugins That Auto-Activate Based on Your Project
Plugins don't just sit there - they activate intelligently:
You open a TypeScript React project
|
v
ProfileBuilder detects: TypeScript, React, maybe Auth domain
|
v
IntelligenceGate calculates ROI for each plugin
|
v
Only profitable plugins activate (ROI >= 100%)
|
v
Zero cost overhead guaranteed
The Intelligence Gate evaluates every plugin:
- Cost: Latency (ms) + Memory (MB) + Startup time
- Savings: Tokens saved + Dollars saved + Historical hit rate
- Decision: Only activate if savings exceed costs
This means different plugins load for a Python ML project vs a React frontend vs a Go backend. Automatically.
4. Context Optimization That Actually Works
| System |
What It Does |
Result |
| Dependency Graph |
Pre-built, query instantly |
No re-parsing your codebase |
| Differential Context |
Send only changes, not full files |
90% noise reduction |
| Attention Hints |
Highlight critical sections |
Agent focuses on what matters |
| Real-time Updates |
Incremental graph updates |
<100ms file change response |
Core Plugins
| Plugin |
What It Does |
Savings |
| Dependency Context |
Injects package.json + versions into AI context |
~300 tokens/generation |
| Deprecated API Detector |
Warns about outdated patterns, suggests modern alternatives |
~500 tokens |
| Duplicate Detector |
Finds similar code before AI regenerates it |
~2000 tokens |
| Unused Code Scanner |
Detects dead imports, unreachable code |
~150 tokens |
| Boilerplate Optimizer |
Suggests targeted fixes vs full regeneration |
~800 tokens |
| Memory Plugin |
Learns project-specific patterns over time |
Varies |
Plugins execute in parallel with error isolation - one plugin's failure never breaks others.
| Metric |
Guarantee |
| Context query |
<50ms |
| File update |
<100ms |
| Governance check |
<5ms p95 |
| Plugin activation decision |
<5ms |
| Total overhead |
<50ms (imperceptible) |
Zero-Cost Guarantee: Intelligence metadata is NEVER sent to the LLM. We optimize context, not add to it.
Quick Start
Installation
# From VS Code Marketplace
ext install vibeatlas.vibeatlas
# Or search "VibeAtlas" in Extensions (Ctrl+Shift+X)
First Use
- Install: Extension activates automatically
- Work normally: Use Claude, Copilot, Cursor as usual
- See reliability: Check status bar for agent health
- Review dashboard: Click to see task completion metrics
Zero configuration required. Plugins auto-activate based on your project.
Works with any AI coding tool:
- Claude Code - Full reliability layer
- GitHub Copilot - Optimized context delivery
- Cursor - Enhanced completion reliability
- Cody - Improved code understanding
- Continue - Context optimization
- Any AI Tool - Universal compatibility
We're infrastructure, not a replacement.
