About Cody
What it is
Cody is Sourcegraph's coding assistant. It answers questions, writes code and explains unfamiliar parts of a project, using Sourcegraph's code search to pull relevant context from across an entire repository rather than only from the file you have open.
Why it's different
The retrieval is the point. Most assistants see what is on screen, and in a large old codebase the useful context sits in files nobody has opened in years, which is exactly what Sourcegraph indexes well. Two cautions. Sourcegraph has moved firmly towards large enterprise customers and the free and individual tiers have been cut back more than once, so do not build a personal workflow on a tier that may not last. Its usefulness also drops sharply on a small codebase.
How people use it
Understanding a large or inherited codebase. Finding every place a pattern is used before changing it. Onboarding onto an unfamiliar project. Answering questions about code nobody remembers writing. Judge it on a big repository, because on a small one the retrieval advantage that justifies it does not exist.
