Overview
Sourcegraph’s autonomous coding agent built for unrestricted reasoning and tool use, available in VS Code and CLI with shared team threads.
Details
Amp is Sourcegraph’s standalone agentic coding tool, distinct from Cody, focused on raw capability with frontier models and no token-saving heuristics. It runs as a VS Code extension and a CLI, executes shell commands, edits files, and uses MCP tools, with a strong emphasis on parallelism and team-shareable conversation threads. Amp supports oracle planning models, subagents, and detailed observability of agent actions. It’s a fast-evolving product reflecting Sourcegraph’s bet on agentic coding.
