Как установить Augment Code в VS Code: вход, подсказки и Agent
Установите расширение Augment, войдите и синхронизируйте репо, затем inline или одно проверяемое изменение Agent.
Первый час с Augment Code в VS Code чаще ломается на расширении augment.vscode-augment, входе через браузер или индексации workspace, а не на промпте. Поставьте из Marketplace, войдите через Google, Microsoft или одноразовый код на email, затем inline-подсказки (если план позволяет) или проверяемое изменение в режиме Agent.
Запрос — как установить и пользоваться Augment Code в VS Code. По docs.augmentcode.com. Это не продукт встреч сайта. Короткий разбор diff: wbmeet, как создать и войти в комнату.
What Augment does in VS Code
Augment Code is an AI coding platform for large codebases: its Context Engine indexes your workspace and powers Chat, Agent (multi-file edits, terminal, MCP), and IDE-native inline completions. Extension id: augment.vscode-augment. Use a current VS Code build; pre-release builds exist but may be unstable.
Install, sign in, sync the workspace
- 1
Install from the VS Code Marketplace
Open VS Code,
Cmd+Shift+X/Ctrl+Shift+X, search Augment, confirmaugment.vscode-augment, Install. For pre-release, use Switch to Pre-Release Version on the installed extension. - 2
Open the Augment panel and Sign In
Click the Augment icon in the Activity Bar or use the official shortcut, then Sign In. Authenticate in the browser with Google, Microsoft, or an email one-time code; accept terms on first login. The status bar icon shows signed-in state when it works.
- 3
Sync (index) the workspace
On a new repo you will see Sync your workspace. Augment uploads files (respecting
.gitignoreand.augmentignore) to build codebase awareness. Check progress in Workspace Context; put secrets paths in.augmentignore. - 4
Try inline completions (if your plan supports them)
Type in source files; gray suggestions accept with
Tab, dismiss withEsc. Toggle automatic completions from the Augment panel overflow menu; settings includeaugment.completions.enableAutomaticCompletions. Non-Enterprise accounts may lack Completions after 2026-03-31 per official docs.
Agent mode: cross-file edits you can review
- 1
Choose Agent in the mode dropdown
In the Augment panel input, pick Agent (there is also Agent Auto, which acts more independently—skip Auto for the first hour). Choose a model for the workspace from the model dropdown.
- 2
Attach context and submit a task
Default context includes the workspace and open file. Attach files, folders, or images. Start read-only or small: “Where is this module’s entry?” or “Add a unit test for one helper; show the diff first.” Use Enhance Prompt to align with repo conventions.
- 3
Review diffs, checkpoints, and Stop
Expand each step for file diffs, terminal output, and MCP calls. Checkpoints let you roll back. Default Agent pauses before terminal commands until you click play; use Stop to interrupt. Quick Ask Mode is read-only—good for reconnaissance.
# First hour · Augment Code · VS Code · 2026-09
# Extensions → Augment (augment.vscode-augment)

# Agent → small task → review diff · checkpointCompletions, Agent, and Chat
| Feature | Good for | First-hour note |
|---|---|---|
| Inline completions | Typing continuations | Enterprise only after 2026-03-31 |
| Chat | Explain & plan | Read-only warmup |
| Agent | Multi-file features & tests | Approve terminal steps |
| Agent Auto | More autonomous runs | Skip Auto first hour |
| Indexing | Whole-repo context | .gitignore + .augmentignore |
Still offline after login
Check pop-up blockers, terms acceptance, and VS Code’s external-link prompt. Sign Out from the command menu and sign in again.
No gray completions
Check overflow menu and augment.completions.* settings; confirm Enterprise plan (non-Enterprise may lose Completions after 2026-03-31).
Agent changed too much
Revert a checkpoint; shrink the task; use Quick Ask read-only; manually approve terminal steps.
Official path: install augment.vscode-augment → Sign In → Sync workspace → (Enterprise) Tab completions → Agent with a small task and reviewed diff. Trust docs.augmentcode.com and your account page.
- Indexing uploads code
- With Augment enabled, workspace files (minus ignore rules) sync to Augment’s cloud. Use .augmentignore for secrets; follow org policy.
- Completions ≠ Agent
- Completions are inline suggestions; Agent is multi-step execution. In mid-2026, non-Enterprise users should plan around Agent/Chat and indexing, not assume Tab completions.
- Not a meeting-product guide
- Only Augment’s first hour. Short whiteboard call: wbmeet and когда не открывать тяжёлое приложение встреч.
Questions worth checking
Must I use Google or Microsoft?
Official sign-in supports Google, Microsoft, and email one-time codes via the browser portal, then returns you to VS Code.
Do personal plans still get completions?
Docs say Completions end for non-Enterprise plans on 2026-03-31; Enterprise remains supported. Use Chat/Agent if ghost text never appears.
Agent vs Chat?
Chat answers and suggests; Agent implements plans across files, runs the terminal, and uses MCP. Multi-file features and hands-off tasks belong in Agent.
Must the first task touch production?
No. Ask a read-only question first, then one reversible Agent change; read diffs and checkpoints before scaling up.
