Code With
Your AI Team

Your AI agent team lives in the platform. But your developers live in their IDE. EnGenAI bridges the gap — bringing agent collaboration directly into the tools your team already uses.

VS Code Extension MCP Server Protocol OpenAI-Compatible API

Your Developers Stay in Flow

Context-switching kills productivity

  • Switch to browser to talk to agents
  • Copy-paste code back and forth
  • Lose IDE context on every switch
  • Manual sync between AI output and codebase

EnGenAI comes to your IDE

  • Chat with agents in your editor sidebar
  • Agent output applies directly to your files
  • Full project context available to agents
  • Zero context-switching overhead

VS Code Extension

Available on the VS Code Marketplace. Install, authenticate, and start collaborating with your AI agents without leaving your editor.

💬

Agent Chat Panel

Talk to Keith, PROMI, Sophi, Marv, or Sage directly from your editor sidebar. Full conversation history preserved.

🔐

Secure Authentication

PKCE OAuth flow — no tokens stored in plaintext. Secure device authentication with your EnGenAI workspace.

🔄

Project Sync

Your local project context is available to agents. They understand your file structure, dependencies, and patterns.

Code Actions

Agent suggestions apply directly to your open files. Review diffs before accepting — you stay in control.

Search "EnGenAI" in the VS Code Extensions Marketplace to install. Requires an active EnGenAI workspace.

MCP Server Registry

Register external MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and bind their tools to any agent. Connect your AI team to any system that speaks MCP — from databases to internal APIs.

MCP Integration Flow

Register Server
URL + auth credentials
Test Connection
health check + tool discovery
Bind to Agent
per-agent tool assignment
Agent Uses Tools
governed by autonomy level

Any MCP Server

Register servers that expose tools via the Model Context Protocol standard. No vendor lock-in.

Credential Security

Server credentials stored in GCP Secret Manager — never in the database. Encrypted at rest with KMS.

Autonomy Gating

MCP tools respect the agent's autonomy level. Destructive operations require human approval.

OpenAI-Compatible API

Access your EnGenAI agents from any client that supports the OpenAI Chat Completions API. Drop-in compatibility — change one URL and your existing tools work with EnGenAI.

API Example
curl https://app.engenai.app/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ENGENAI_PAT" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "keith",
    "messages": [
      {"role": "user", "content": "Design a user auth system"}
    ]
  }'
          

Personal Access Tokens

Authenticate with PAT keys — generate, rotate, and revoke from your workspace settings. Fine-grained scopes control what each token can access.

Device Flow Auth

For CLI tools and headless environments. Standard OAuth 2.0 Device Authorization Grant — authenticate on any device with a browser.

Full Developer Environment

Even without an IDE extension, the platform includes a complete development environment — no local setup required.

Monaco Editor

The same editor engine that powers VS Code — syntax highlighting, IntelliSense, and multi-cursor editing in your browser.

Integrated Terminal

Full terminal access within the platform. Run commands, view logs, and debug — without switching windows.

File Management

Browse, create, edit, and organise project files. Full tree view with search and filtering.

Roadmap
