DeepSource Autofix™ AI

Integrates DeepSource's cloud-based static analysis engine with VS Code to scan code across 10+ languages (Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, Go, Rust, C#, PHP, Ruby, Kotlin, Swift, Scala) using both traditional linting rules and LLM-based semantic analysis. Issues are surfaced inline in the editor with severity levels and categorization, enabling developers to identify bugs, security vulnerabilities, and code quality issues without leaving their IDE.

Leverages LLMs to generate contextually-aware fixes for detected code issues and applies them directly to the source file with a single click. The system analyzes the issue context, surrounding code patterns, and project conventions to generate fixes that maintain code style consistency. Fixes are applied as atomic edits that can be undone, and multiple fixes can be batched across a file or workspace.

Displays detected code issues directly in the VS Code editor as inline diagnostics, color-coded by severity (critical, high, medium, low) and categorized by issue type (security, performance, style, etc.). Developers can filter visible issues by severity, category, or language, and hover over issues to see detailed explanations, fix suggestions, and links to documentation. The visualization updates in real-time as code is edited.

Analyzes code changes (diffs) and generates AI-powered code review comments that highlight potential issues, suggest improvements, and explain reasoning. The system integrates with Git workflows to analyze staged changes or pull requests, generating review feedback that can be posted directly to version control platforms (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) or displayed in the editor. Reviews include severity levels, suggested fixes, and links to best practices documentation.

Allows developers to customize which static analysis rules are enabled, disabled, or configured per language through VS Code settings and DeepSource configuration files (.deepsource.toml). Supports per-language rule severity overrides, exclusion patterns for specific files or directories, and integration with existing linter configurations (ESLint, Pylint, etc.). Changes are applied immediately and reflected in real-time analysis.

Scans all files in the VS Code workspace and aggregates detected issues into a centralized report showing issue counts by type, severity, and file. Provides summary statistics (total issues, critical count, trend over time) and allows bulk operations like fixing all issues of a type or exporting reports. The aggregation updates incrementally as files are analyzed, and can be filtered by language, directory, or issue category.

Integrates with Git workflows to analyze staged changes, commits, and pull requests, with optional integration into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.) for automated analysis on every push or PR. The extension can block commits if critical issues are detected, post review comments directly to PRs, and generate quality reports for merge gates. Configuration is managed through .deepsource.toml or CI/CD platform-specific files.

Generates human-readable explanations for detected code issues, including why the issue is problematic, what impact it may have, and how to fix it. For complex issues, the system can generate code comments or docstring suggestions that document the problematic pattern and the recommended approach. Explanations are tailored to the developer's experience level (beginner/intermediate/expert) and can include links to relevant documentation or best practices.
