    JetBrains Junie
    Junie is JetBrains' AI coding agent, built to be cost-efficient. It plans with a powerful model and implements with a faster one, so you spend fewer tokens per task while getting the same quality. On the independent SWE-Rebench benchmark, Junie resolves more real-world coding issues than other leading agents, at a lower cost per task. Junie supports the latest models from major frontier labs on day zero, so you're never waiting on integration work to use what just shipped. It works with almost any model you choose, inside IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA, directly from the terminal, or from GitHub and GitLab issues and merge requests. A human stays in the loop. Junie asks for approval before risky actions, and you can redirect it mid-task instead of starting over. Teach Junie your team's coding standards, naming conventions, and review process, and switch from another AI coding agent in seconds with no extra setup.

    Happy Coder

    Happy Coder

    Happy Coder

    Happy, also known as Happy Coder, is a free, open source mobile and web client that lets users spawn, view, and control multiple Claude Code AI coding agent sessions on any device, phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop, by syncing them in real time using an encrypted relay architecture so that a session started on one device can be continued seamlessly on another without losing context. It comprises three coordinated components, a CLI program that runs locally to launch and monitor Claude Code, a mobile app or web app that connects securely to the CLI session using end-to-end encryption so nobody (including the relay server) can read your data, and a relay server that simply passes encrypted blobs between devices without access to the contents; this design lets developers maintain their existing tools, editors, and workflows while adding remote control capability.

    OllaCoder

    OllaCoder

    OllaCoder

    OllaCoder is a private AI coding assistant for VS Code, built for engineers who refuse to ship their source code to someone else’s server. It runs locally, works with your own Ollama models, and brings agent mode, inline edits, codebase chat, smart autocomplete, MCP servers, and a local-first runtime into one editor. OllaCoder is built on the idea that software is a private craft: your code should stay yours, and an AI assistant should be powerful, honest, and silent. By default, it talks to your local Ollama instance, so prompts, completions, and edits stay on your computer; cloud providers are strictly opt-in, and API keys live encrypted in the OS keychain. Its agent mode can plan tasks, edit files, run the terminal, and verify its own work, with every step available for approval, denial, or rollback. Inline edits let users highlight a function, describe the change, and review a real diff hunk by hunk.

    StarCoder

    StarCoder

    BigCode

    StarCoder and StarCoderBase are Large Language Models for Code (Code LLMs) trained on permissively licensed data from GitHub, including from 80+ programming languages, Git commits, GitHub issues, and Jupyter notebooks. Similar to LLaMA, we trained a ~15B parameter model for 1 trillion tokens. We fine-tuned StarCoderBase model for 35B Python tokens, resulting in a new model that we call StarCoder. We found that StarCoderBase outperforms existing open Code LLMs on popular programming benchmarks and matches or surpasses closed models such as code-cushman-001 from OpenAI (the original Codex model that powered early versions of GitHub Copilot). With a context length of over 8,000 tokens, the StarCoder models can process more input than any other open LLM, enabling a wide range of interesting applications. For example, by prompting the StarCoder models with a series of dialogues, we enabled them to act as a technical assistant.
