    Continue 2.0.0 issue: Agent mode file tools fail with a local modelGitHub issue

    On Continue 2.0.0 in VS Code Agent mode with a local LM Studio model, file tool calls repeatedly went out with missing or empty arguments. The author reports that the agent retried on speculation, leaving the exact error unreported, and says it "did not initially complete a verified write-and-reread cycle".

    JetBrains plugin fails to load in 2026.2 IDEs with NoClassDefFoundError: com/intellij/ui/jcef/JBCefAppGitHub issue

    Traced why Continue 1.0.67 crashes on JetBrains 2026.2 IDEs to a missing JCEF dependency in plugin.xml. Patching the one line into the installed plugin made it load normally in Rider 2026.2, and the author says a PR with the fix will follow.

His first choice was GitHub Copilot, for its VS Code integration and support for OpenAI-compatible endpoints.

    Checked Oct 12, 2026

  8. How Agent mode works

    Documents the tool handshake: the user approves each tool call unless its policy is Automatic, and Plan mode offers read-only tools only.

    Checked Oct 12, 2026

  9. CLI tool permissions

    Sets out allow, ask, and exclude per tool, with writes and Bash on ask by default, a persistent permissions.yaml, and auto and read-only modes.

    Checked Oct 12, 2026

  10. CLI headless mode

    Documents cn -p for scripts and CI, where tools that would ask for approval are excluded unless explicitly allowed.

    Checked Oct 12, 2026

  11. Rules

    Project rules live as markdown files in .continue/rules, applied always or when relevant.

    Checked Oct 12, 2026
