Dear Alex Strube, I hope you are well. Your recent updates on Blablador inspired me to publish a tool I've been working on to the VS Code Marketplace. The extension is called Continued (for the sake of it). It provides a secure, unified multi-model sidebar right inside the editor: Also seamlessly switches between local Ollama instances and remote Blablador cloud models (like alias-code). API keys are stored securely using VS Code's native SecretStorage. Agent Auto-Edit Mode: To the best of my knowledge, this is a unique feature. It lets the AI safely modify or delete workspace files with an instant "Undo" rollback loop. You can view it here: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=AtaUlHaleem.continued If you think this would be useful for the Blablador community, I would love to hear your thoughts. I am very open to any feedback or feature suggestions you might have!
