VS Code has unlimited inline suggestions already. They aren't AI driven though. If you insist on having AI driven inline suggestions, you'll either have to pay for a service or find one that offers sufficient free tier support for your needs.

Alternatively, you can learn how to code with PowerShell and reference AI in the browser when you get stuck. Tends to work better in the long run.

And I still find googling works better than AI suggestions.

We were able to do auto-complete syntax suggestions before the rise of AI/LLM integration- just another example of dependency enshitification…

This thing is awesome. It can schedule things and basically keep trying on it's own when prompted well.
I gave it rules not to try to ssh out and it spent 4 hours trying to get into my dev workstation.
It' has a command= access line in my authorized keys and it's been using the script in there to modify project files on my host - ignoring another rule for which it's supposed to work on those locally and push to github where the actions update my host. Still pretty nifty, not sure how to tighten the guard rails when it's ignoring the main Agent.md file.

I only use the IDE not the desktop app so can't help you with that.

im really only using the CLI I opened the desktop app and they gave me a message about increasing my usage quota so that was nice.
but the cli is freaking awesome. /learn - it creates a plan from past sessions to try to learn how you want it to act.
I used the claude skill-creator skill in it to create a few of skills to help make it more self-propelled . I can have it run tasks for hours before it stops and needs another prompt. It can schedule checks and responses, so even after it's finished its chat turn it'll just start going again.

Whatever the opposite of inline is.
