Hi HN,

I wrote a 4-part series on how we built the AI edit model behind Pochi’s coding agent.

It covers everything from real-time context management and request lifecycles to dynamically rendering code edits using only VS Code’s public APIs.

I’ve written this as openly and concretely as possible, with implementation details and trade-offs.

Full series:

1. The Edit Model Behind Tab Completion: https://docs.getpochi.com/developer-updates/how-we-created-n...

2. Real-Time Context Management in Your Code Editor: https://docs.getpochi.com/developer-updates/context-manageme...

3. Request Management Under Continuous Typing: https://docs.getpochi.com/developer-updates/request-manageme...
