Kilo Code v7 for VS Code - Parallel agents, diff reviewer, and multi-model comparisons
by•
We've completely rebuilt Kilo Code for VS Code, built on OpenCode server. New portable core, parallel tool calls, subagent delegation, inline code review, multi-model comparisons. Get started: kilo.ai/install

I’ve been using Kilo Code for a while, and this update feels noticeably faster.
The parallel tool calls are the part I felt right away. It doesn’t sit around waiting as much, especially on bigger tasks where it needs to search files, read code, or run commands. The Agent Manager is also really nice if you’re juggling a few things at once without wanting everything mixed together.
Inline review on diffs is probably my favorite addition. It makes giving feedback to the agent feel a lot closer to how I’d review a teammate’s PR.
Overall, this is a really strong update. Kilo is becoming one of the few coding tools I actually keep coming back to.

Kilo is becoming one of the few coding tools I actually keep coming back to.
A lot of people hit a breaking point when agents start generating more diffs than they can confidently review—how did you design the inline diff reviewer + line-comment-to-chat loop to reduce review fatigue, and what review metrics (time-to-approval, revert rate, “second pass” prompts) are you tracking to prove it works?
And yes, while you can bring your own keys or use local models, most users pay for inference via the Kilo Gateway, which lets you switch freely between models using one balance.
You just pay for token at provider costs - whatever Anthropic charges for Opus, and whatever OpenAI charges for GPT, that's what you pay!
The line level review comments on agent diffs is a really smart UX call. Feels like the missing link between AI wrote this and I actually trust this going to prod.

@curiouskitty Good question!
We offer both local reviews in the extension and automated reviews on Github and GitLab PRs.
You can specify the strictness in both cases, so that you can filter down to the review points you actually care about.
Congratulations!
thanks for the continuous support! please help us spread on LinkedIn, repost this

@madalina_barbu Thank you Madalina! Are you using any agentic coding tools already?
Great update guys! Nice work!
ty! what's your favorite new feature in this release? help us spread the word on X, repost this

@th_calafatidis thank you, happy you like it!
KiloClaw
@th_calafatidis Thanks a lot!
How does the multi agent system comparison handle tokens ? does it run them all in the background simultaneously ? btw Congrats on the launch :)

@farhan_nazir55 it runs them on separated git worktrees

@carter_garcia I agree! And it helps to get a local review as a sanity check before shipping to a public repo
Kilo Code
@carter_garcia yeah it's very helpful for my daily workflows
Rebuilt from scratch on OpenCode server and still GA'd, that's not a small thing. Most teams would've shipped a half-baked beta and called it done.
thank you! S/O to the team for the amazing work

@elijah_smith6 that's not how we do things at Kilo. We ship, we get feedback, we iterate iterate iterate. Here's a quick recap of the journey: https://blog.kilo.ai/p/were-back-on-product-hunt-new-vs-code

@elijah_smith6 Thanks for the kind words!

@elijah_smith6 thank you
been looking for something like this, the ai coding space is getting crowded but this looks focused
Kilo Code
@sam_rivera keen to hear what you think about it
this is great. Going to use it for building ActorDo.
KiloCode works as a good alternative to github copilot

@alxrda thanks, love to hear what you think coming from copilot.
