Rift is an AI-native language server and extension that lets you deploy a personal AI software engineer — locally hosted, private, secure, and free.
Rift and this extension are fully open-source.
The future of AI code assistants is open-source, private, secure, and on-device. Rift understands, explains, and writes code with language models that run entirely on your device using the open source Rift Code Engine.
- Ensure the Rift Code Engine is installed and running on port 7797:
git clone https://www.github.com/morph-labs/rift
cd rift
# set up a virtual environment with Python (>=3.9), then install the `rift` Python package
pip install -e ./rift-engine
# launch the language server
python -m rift.server.core --port 7797
This requires a working Python (>=3.9) installation.
2. Access the chat interface by clicking on the sidebar icon.
3. Trigger code completions in the editor window using the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl + M
) or by running the Rift: Code Completion
command (Ctrl + Shift + P
+ type "Rift"). If the extension is unable to connect to the server, try running the command Developer: Reload Window
