Seeking a Comprehensive AI Coding Assistant for VS Code

Hello everyone,

I'm currently on the lookout for an AI coding assistant that can seamlessly integrate with Visual Studio Code and understand the entirety of my project codebase. My objective is to find a tool that functions akin to a professional supervisor, capable of offering comprehensive guidance across multiple files whenever I implement new features.

While I have come across several AI tools that excel at inline code completion, bug fixing, and code reviews, I find it challenging to receive meaningful assistance when working with existing code and logic. Often, implementing a feature requires modifications across several files, and I struggle to convey the necessary context to the AI tools I am familiar with. This situation is particularly frustrating, especially when I need to work on a complex codebase and ensure that all dependencies and relationships are understood.

With the advancements in modern technology, I'm hopeful that there exists a sophisticated AI tool that can address these needs. If anyone knows of a tool that can maintain awareness of my entire project state and assist with multifaceted coding tasks, I would greatly appreciate your recommendations.

Thank you for your help!

Best regards,
Wishorn

I was managed to find it.
The Cline VS code extension is really great though it charges.
I recommend BlackBox to users who just want the free tool.
Thank you.
