Integrations

Continue

Continue is an open-source AI coding assistant. Point its openai provider at DEVUP AI in config.yaml, and chat, Agent mode and file edits run on DEVUP AI models.

Requirements

Install Continue in VS Code

bash
code --install-extension Continue.continue

Or search for Continue in the VS Code Extensions view.

Configure Continue with an OpenAI-compatible API

Open config.yaml:

  • macOS and Linux: ~/.continue/config.yaml
  • Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.yaml

Add a model entry that points at DEVUP AI:

yaml
name: DEVUP AI
version: 1.0.0
schema: v1
models:
  - name: DeepSeek V4 Pro (DEVUP AI)
    provider: openai
    model: deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro
    apiBase: https://api.devupai.com/v1
    apiKey: your-devup-api-key
    roles:
      - chat
      - edit
      - apply
    capabilities:
      - tool_use

Model fields

config.yaml stores your key in plain text. Keep it in your home folder and never copy it into a project or commit it.

Chat with DEVUP AI models in Continue

  1. Run Developer: Reload Window from the Command Palette.
  2. Press Ctrl+L to open Continue.
  3. Pick DeepSeek V4 Pro (DEVUP AI) in the model picker.

Agent mode and file edits

Continue opens in Agent mode. With tool_use set, the agent can create and edit files: asked to create hello.py, it wrote print("Salam DEVUP"). Select code and press Ctrl+I to add it to the chat, then ask for a change — here, Add a docstring.

Continue Agent mode editing hello.py to add a docstring through DEVUP AI

Choosing models

Use the exact catalog ID as model. Agent mode needs a model whose catalog entry supports tool calling. See Models and Tool Calling.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication error (401)Check that apiKey holds your DEVUP AI key and apiBase is https://api.devupai.com/v1.
  • The model is missing from the pickerRun Developer: Reload Window after saving config.yaml, and check the YAML indentation: models is a top-level list.
  • Agent mode does not use toolsAdd tool_use under capabilities. Continue does not detect tool support for custom models on its own.
