Human in the loop: Those who like to control the behavior of their agents as it works, looking at the context usage, reading reasoning blocks, and approving individual file edits.
Agent first: Those who prefer to review the output of agents, rather than individual actions, and run one or more sessions in parallel.
What type of developer are you when working with AI coding agents?
Last week, @Kilo Code launched for the fourth time on Product Hunt, introducing a new VS Code extension. The product ranked #1 Product of the Day and #1 Product of the Week.
I had the opportunity to work on this launch. Here's a breakdown of what we did and how to apply it to your launch.
We've completely rebuilt Kilo Code for VS Code, built on OpenCode server. New portable core, parallel tool calls, subagent delegation, inline code review, multi-model comparisons. Get started: kilo.ai/install
Automated code review agents that analyze pull requests, suggest improvements, catch bugs, and ensure code quality standards. Pick from 500+ models (Claude, GPT, Gemini, and several free options) to get instant feedback before merging.
Build, debug, and ship with one AI coding teammate. Kilo Code is open-source, model-agnostic AI code assistant that's pay-per use. After 420,000+ downloads on VS Code and Cursor, we're bringing it to the JetBrains ecosystem: IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm...
Hot off the press! OSS AI coding assistant @Kilo Code just announced a $8 Million raise in seed funding.
@scobreit wrote in their blog announcement:
This funding accelerates our roadmap: smarter multi-agent collaboration, enterprise-grade tooling for technical leaders, and a feature set that continues to accelerate the AI flywheel for development teams using Kilo.
Kilo Code is an open-source, model-agnostic AI code assistant with transparent pricing.
First launched 6 months ago and after 420,000+ downloads on @VS Code and @Cursor, the team is bringing it to the @JetBrains ecosystem (IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm...) and they will be live on @Product Hunt this Sunday, September 28.
