I just don’t understand how anyone is making practical use of local code completion models. Is there a VS Code extension that I’ve been unable to find? HuggingFace released one that is meant to use their service for inference, not your local GPU.

The instruct version of code llama could certainly be run locally without trouble, and that’s interesting too, but I keep wanting to test out a local CoPilot alternative that uses these nice, new completion models.

There are a bunch of VSCode extensions that make use of local models. Tabby seems to be the most friendly right now, but I admittedly haven't tried it myself: https://tabbyml.github.io/tabby/

there's also Refact (https://github.com/smallcloudai/refact/) with support of several open-source code LLMs and extension for VS Code and Jetbrains
