Wow! We’re shocked by these results. The new Brokk Power Ranking just dropped and it’s not at all what you’d expect…what are your thoughts?

You asked for a VS Code Extension. We built it. Brokk for VS Code extension is live.

We ripped out LiteLLM and wrote our own proxy after the repo became unmaintainable vibecoded slop. This is what happens when you can't audit what you depend on.

Claude Code looks for code two ways: grep for a keyword, or spin up subagents that page through files 200 lines at a time. Rather than burning thousands of unnecessary tokens, Brokk maps your codebase. The AI just looks it up.

@camsoft2000 The issue is that your codebase isn't a bag of text. Most tools grep through it hunting for relevant pieces, which is fine at 10k lines, but at scale the model is reasoning over disconnected fragments with no picture of how anything connects.

I’m getting to the point with one of the projects I work on where the complexity of AI slop is becoming a real issue. While I can still happily prompt the agent to add x feature and it will do so and it will likely work perfectly, the code is just getting too complex and fragmented. Agents love to copy and paste and keeping patterns DRY is a real challenge. The agent will start diverging all those copy and pastes until you’ve got loads of similar but slightly different blocks of logic. Again it all still works and solves the problem I’m after. But I just can’t get any kind of consistency anymore, the code is a mess and I just don’t have a handle on it. I want a clean unified architecture but agents just code with tunnel vision. The project is now too big and complex for an agent to fully reason with and too big and complex for me to reason with. The only real solution is a complete rewrite. Maybe this is the way things will go. Code will just become disposable. I don’t really want to care about the code and to be honest I don’t but I do care about consistency and maintainability and the AI slop is hurting those very things I do care about. I know some will say “I’m holding it wrong”, use x,y,z skill, tool whatever and already use tools and anti slop skills, plans, docs, etc but the outcome is the same. Vibe coding something into existence is truly magical. But turning it into a mature product with months of iterations is painful. I can’t even hand code this thing because I don’t understand the code anymore and I’m too lazy to try and code myself because I’m addicted to AI. So what’s the solution, either start again and accept that’s just the way we have to roll, or just carry on fighting the slop and accept each new feature will take longer to implement than the last. I’m tired. I’m addicted.

Your error rate reviewing diffs is higher than the model's error rate writing them. @spyced on why the value of an engineer in 2026 is deciding what to build and where to point the agents.

Your AI coding tool works in one IDE. Brokk works in all of them. IntelliJ @intellijidea. VSCode @code. Zed @zeddotdev. Codex. Our own TUI. Pick your favorite editor. We're already there.

Most VS Code AI Extensions treat your codebase as a bag of text. Deep Scan reads code the way a compiler does: symbols, types, call sites across your entire project. That's the context your AI needs to actually be useful. Brokk for VS Code is live.
