Windsurf

AI Copilot and Agent Collaboration: The Windsurf Editor is powered by an AI that can both collaborate with you like a Copilot and tackle complex tasks independently like an Agent. The AI is completely in sync with you, every step of the way. This feature allows for a coding experience where the AI collaborates with the developer and tackles complex tasks independently.

Flows: Dev and AI Mind-Meld: Flows allow the dev and AI to operate on the same state at all times, creating a mind-meld experience beyond just an assistant. It enables seamless interaction and synchronized operation between the developer and the AI.

Cascade: Deep Contextual Awareness: Deep contextual awareness allows you to run Cascade on production codebases and still get relevant suggestions. This ensures relevant and accurate suggestions even when working with large and complex codebases.

Cascade: Command and Debugging Tools: Cascade's tools encompass command suggestion and execution, as well as issue detection and debugging. The AI assists in suggesting and executing commands, as well as identifying and resolving issues in the code.

Cascade: Pick Up Where You Left Off: With automatic reasoning of your explicit actions, Cascade can pick up your work where you left off. This means the AI can continue your coding tasks even after interruptions or breaks, improving workflow efficiency.

Cascade: Coherent Multi-File Edits: Coherent multi-file edits through context awareness, tool integration, and iterative problem-solving. Cascade can perform edits across multiple files while maintaining context and ensuring consistency, enhancing the development experience.

Linter Integration: Linter Integration: If Cascade generates code that doesn't pass a linter, then Cascade will automatically fix the errors. This ensures code quality and adherence to coding standards by automatically correcting any linting errors.

Model Context Protocol (MCP): Model Context Protocol (MCP): Enhance your AI workflows by connecting to custom tools and services. The MCP allows for seamless integration with external tools and services, expanding the capabilities of the AI-powered workflow.

Tab to Jump: Tab to Jump predicts the next location of your cursor to seamlessly navigate through the file. This feature improves coding speed and efficiency by anticipating the developer's next move.

Supercomplete: Supercomplete analyzes what your next action might be, beyond just inserting the next code snippet. It anticipates the developer's needs and suggests more comprehensive solutions, not just simple code completion.

In-line Command + Follow ups: In-line Command + Follow ups allows you to press Cmd + I in your editor to generate or refactor in-line code using natural language. This feature enables quick code generation and refactoring using natural language commands.

Command in Terminal: Command in Terminal allows you to press Cmd + I in terminal and type in terminal instructions in natural language. This brings the power of natural language commands to the terminal environment, simplifying complex tasks.

Codelenses: Codelenses are available next to breadcrumbs, codelenses let you understand or refactor code with one click. This allows for code refactoring with a single click.

Highlighted code actions: Highlighted code actions allow you to directly mention highlighted code in the Cascade panel or refactor it using Command. You can refactor highlighted code using commands.

@ mentions in Cascade: @ mentions in Cascade allow you to refer to your functions, classes, files or entire directories to guide Cascade to relevant context. This allows you to guide Cascade to relevant context.
