Hello, Cody. Cody answers code questions and writes code for you by reading your entire codebase and the code graph. Often magical, often frustratingly wrong...but getting better quickly. Rolling out to opt-in customers & Discord community members now.

I just spoke code. 🤓 The founders of @serenadeai came by and showed me their super cool voice-to-code input tool for @code @AtomEditor etc. It solves a huge (literal) pain for people with RSI. Also great for voice shortcuts (“add import lodash”) and coding while feeding 👶🍼.
