Tencent has launched a new code assistant plugin called CodeBuddy3.0. This product is deeply integrated with the WeChat Mini Program development tool, marking another important move by Tencent in its developer ecosystem. CodeBuddy is not an independent integrated development environment (IDE), but rather a plugin that can be installed in various development tools, allowing developers to use it on different coding platforms.

One of the main highlights of CodeBuddy is its innovative Craft mode.

This mode enables AI to autonomously understand user requirements and complete multi-file code generation and rewriting. Users just need to provide simple natural language instructions, and AI can automatically generate executable application projects. This means that developers no longer have to rely solely on conversational tools; CodeBuddy will become a programming assistant with independent thinking and execution capabilities, enhancing development flexibility.

CodeBuddy is the first programming assistant in China to support the MCP protocol.

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open protocol released by Anthropic aimed at providing standardized external data access methods for large language models. Through MCP, CodeBuddy can seamlessly integrate with external tools and services, enhancing AI's execution capabilities in complex development tasks.

In terms of functionality, CodeBuddy integrates both DeepSeek R1/V3 and HunYuan-Turbo S dual models, upgrading multiple intelligent capabilities such as code completion, project understanding, and unit testing. During the coding process, users will receive real-time suggestions and support, improving overall coding efficiency.

In the latest version of CodeBuddy, developers can easily create and debug mini programs within the WeChat Developer Tool. This plugin-based approach provides developers with more flexibility, as they do not need to switch their familiar development environments to use CodeBuddy's intelligent features. The plugin supports features like code completion, smart hints, and code generation, aiming to improve development efficiency.

In addition, CodeBuddy not only supports mini program development but also integrates with game development, WeChat Pay, and other functionalities, greatly enriching its application scenarios. Through this plugin, Tencent further strengthens its position in the developer ecosystem, providing developers with more tools and support.

The launch of CodeBuddy injects new vitality into Tencent's developer ecosystem, making the development of mini programs simpler and more efficient.
