The Week AI Coding Got More Human. Launch week at Continue.

💻 CLI · 🔮 Next Edit · 🔄 Parallel Tool Calling · 🧠Plan Mode · 🤖 Model Choice
A couple of weeks ago, we tried something new: five launches in five days. Not a hype drop, but an opinionated path toward AI that feels fast, transparent, and developer-first. If you missed anything, here’s the short guide to what matters and where to click.
What We Launched
💻 Continue CLI
Work terminal-first with async agents that plug directly into your repo and processes. The CLI makes Continuous AI part of your team’s daily rhythm, allowing you to automate repeat tasks, run in the background, and scale with your workflows.

👉 Get started now: npm i -g @continuedev/cli
🔮 Next Edit
Autocomplete adds code, but it can’t refactor or fix what’s already there. Next Edit anticipates your editing patterns and suggests multi-line changes that match your intent.

🧠Plan Mode
Planning often gets skipped, but that leads to rework later. Plan Mode helps you think out loud and turn fuzzy goals into an executable path.

âš¡ Parallel Tool Calling
Most agents process tools one at a time, slowing everything down. Parallel Tool Calling runs them simultaneously, so workflows finish faster and feel responsive.

🤖 Model Recommendations - August 2025
No single model is best at everything. We make it easy to choose the right one for autocomplete, planning, or agents instead of hiding decisions behind a black box.

One More Thing 🌱
We didn’t ship five features just to check boxes. We did it to make the point that AI coding should feel human.
That means faster workflows, more transparency, and tools that respect the way teams actually build.
Launch Week is over, but Continuous AI is only just beginning.
