Completion, review, agents Β· 37 tools
AI coding tools have shifted from 'autocomplete' to 'pair programmer'. They can write functions from comments, explain legacy code, generate tests, and even plan and execute multi-file changes via agents β compressing the loop from idea to running code.
For daily editing, plugin-style assistants boost efficiency inside your existing editor; for building from scratch, AI-native editors and agents are stronger. Always review generated code for security and correctness before shipping.

It changes the job more than replaces it β routine coding shrinks, while design, review, and judgment matter more.
Review for bugs, security flaws, and license issues. Don't ship generated code blindly.
Plugins suit existing workflows; AI-native editors suit building new projects and larger refactors.
