Cody

✦ Codebase-Wide Graph Context & Semantic Search

Indexes your entire repository using Sourcegraph code graph technology to retrieve cross-file symbol definitions, interfaces, and architecture logic without manual context pasting.

✦ Multi-Model Coding Flexibility (Claude 3.5 Sonnet & GPT-4o)

Switch seamlessly between leading foundation models directly within your IDE to balance reasoning depth, speed, and architectural accuracy for specific tasks.

✦ Automated Unit Test Generation & Code Refactoring

Instantly generate comprehensive unit tests covering edge cases and mock dependencies, while safely refactoring legacy functions with detailed inline explanations.

✦ Enterprise Context Isolation & Private Code Guardrails

Guarantees that private proprietary codebases and customer data are never retained or used to train third-party foundation models, complying with enterprise SOC2 standards.

Engineers navigating multi-tier applications who need instant answers across API routes, ORM schemas, and microservice boundaries.

Architects managing complex CI/CD pipelines, Docker configurations, and infrastructure-as-code repos requiring deep cross-file dependency insight.

Senior engineers auditing pull requests, identifying logic vulnerabilities, and enforcing consistent code standards across teams.

Organizations running monorepos or distributed repositories that require strict code privacy and centralized governance.

✓ Navigating and Onboarding Huge Unfamiliar Codebases

Quickly query how authentication middleware or payment dispatchers work across hundreds of files without spending days reading legacy documentation.

✓ Generating Exhaustive Unit & Integration Tests

Select any function or class in VS Code or JetBrains and ask Cody to craft edge-case test suites matching your project testing framework (Jest, PyTest, JUnit).

✓ Refactoring Deprecated APIs & Modernizing Legacy Logic

Instruct Cody to replace legacy callback patterns with async/await or migrate deprecated library calls across multiple coordinated files safely.

✓ Debugging Obscure Runtime Errors with Full Context

Paste stack traces directly into Cody chat; it locates the offending source files, traces variable propagation, and suggests a verified one-click patch.

What distinguishes Sourcegraph Cody from other AI code assistants?

Unlike assistants limited to single open files, Cody leverages Sourcegraphs deep Code Graph technology to search and understand relationships across your entire codebase, including multi-repository projects.

Which IDEs and code editors support Cody?

Cody natively integrates with Visual Studio Code, JetBrains IDEs (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc.), Neovim, and through the Sourcegraph web interface.

Does Cody offer a free tier for individual developers?

Yes, Cody offers a permanent Free Tier for individuals that provides autocomplete, codebase chat, and standard rate limits with top LLMs like Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4o.

Is my proprietary code stored or used to train public AI models?

No, Sourcegraph enforces strict commercial data privacy agreements. Your private code is never retained by third-party model providers, nor is it used to train foundation models.

Can I choose which foundation model powers Cody?

Yes, Cody allows developers to switch between state-of-the-art models including Anthropic Claude 3.5 Sonnet, OpenAI GPT-4o, and Google Gemini models depending on subscription tier.

How does Cody handle massive monorepos and enterprise scale?

Built on Sourcegraphs enterprise search infrastructure, Cody uses precise embeddings and symbol indexing to scale effortlessly across millions of lines of code without degradation.
