What is the best alternative to OpenPanel?

Continue is the one we can answer for in full. Read a complete Apache-2.0 implementation of an IDE coding agent: the VS Code extension, the CLI and the JetBrains plugin are all in one tree. Continue costs nothing and no longer sells anything: the final release pulled authentication out of the product. Every part of that answer is quoted from a page we read; the links are on this page beside each claim.

How this list is ordered. Tools whose claims we have read and quoted come first, then tools whose repository we track, then catalogue entries we have not researched. Within each band the order is category and workflow overlap. A tool that has stopped is never the first answer. We publish no score out of five: every claim here traces to a source, and a number we could not justify would undermine the ones that can.
