Install

Up and running in a minute.

1 · Install the extension

From the Marketplace, or right from the terminal:

code --install-extension steelburn.ado-code
Open in Marketplace

2 · Connect Azure DevOps

Optional — the extension walks you through it, or pick None (no project) to use ADO Code standalone. You'll need:

  • An ADO organization, project, and a PAT with vso.work_write scope
  • Per-organization PATs if you work across tenants
  • Optional: on-prem ADO Server (TFS) base URL

3 · Add an LLM

Bring your own key — any provider speaking the protocols:

  • OpenAI-compatible APIs — including OpenRouter, Ollama, LM Studio
  • Anthropic API
  • Per-mode models and reasoning effort in Advanced mode

Requirements

  • VS Code 1.85.0+
  • Node.js 18+
  • A git-enabled workspace folder

No telemetry. No account required beyond your own ADO + LLM providers. Open source on GitHub.
