What is Continue?
Continue is an open-source AI coding platform that split into two products in mid-2025. The first is an Apache 2.0 extension for VS Code and JetBrains offering autocomplete, chat and multi-file edit with any model you plug in, including local models via Ollama or LM Studio. The second is a CLI-based Continuous AI agent that runs checks written in plain Markdown as native GitHub status checks on every pull request, with suggested fixes and integrations for Slack, Sentry and Snyk.
The extension passed 2.5 million VS Code installs and 33,000 GitHub stars by May 2026, so most people searching for Continue want the IDE half rather than the CI half. Its real cost is setup: you bring your own API keys and configure models and context providers yourself, which is why teams wanting something usable on day one tend to choose Cursor or Copilot. Check the project's current maintenance and ownership status before adopting it for production.
