Sourcegraph Cody (sourcegraph.com/cody) is an AI coding assistant that goes beyond individual developer productivity by leveraging Sourcegraph's Code Intelligence Platform to understand entire codebases at enterprise scale. Unlike traditional AI assistants that work with limited context, Cody uses Sourcegraph's Code Graph to understand relationships across multiple repositories, enabling deeper contextual awareness for smarter autocompletions, refactoring, and code suggestions.
How Sourcegraph Cody Works
Cody integrates with IDEs like VS Code, Visual Studio, Eclipse, and JetBrains, providing inline editing and chat assistance without disrupting workflows. The platform connects to Sourcegraph's Code Graph — a comprehensive schema of code structure, relationships, and metadata — to provide context-aware assistance. Cody can search across all connected repositories to find relevant code, understand cross-file dependencies, and generate documentation based on actual usage patterns throughout the codebase. It supports multiple LLMs including Claude Sonnet 4 and GPT-4o.
