Prestige IDE fixing a bug with a local model: tool cards, a diff, and the Changes pane — Fixing a bug on Qwen3.6 35B: it finds the cause, edits with a diff, runs the script and reports how it checked

Four elements, one workbench

The same alchemy as Prestige, pointed at your code.

Fire the agent

Agent loop. It reads, searches, edits, runs commands and keeps going until the job is done, then says what it changed and how it checked.
Subagents. Research jobs go to a helper with a fresh context, so the main conversation stays small.
Slash commands. /init, /review, /commit, /pr, /plan, /rewind and your own.
Scheduled runs. Nightly tests, a dependency check or a morning summary on a timetable.
Preview. It starts your dev server, screenshots the page and reads its console errors to check its own UI work.

Earth safety

Permission modes. Ask before edits, Accept edits, Plan mode or Bypass, switched with Shift+Tab.
See it first. Every edit and command shows before it runs, with a diff.
Checkpoints and rewind. Every message is a checkpoint; rewind puts every changed file back.
Rules and hooks. Allow and deny rules plus PowerShell hooks in .prestige/settings.json.
Guarded reads. Reading outside the project or fetching a new site asks first.

Water the workspace

Files and Monaco editor. Folder tree, tabs, syntax colouring and Ctrl+S.
Changes pane. Every file the session touched, diffed side by side, with Revert.
Real terminals. PowerShell in tabs, opened in the project folder.
Git built in. Branch chip, pull, push, and new sessions in their own worktree.
Notebooks. .ipynb files read and edited one cell at a time.

Air your models

Model tiers. Deep, Main, Fast and Mini, each mapped to any Ollama or llama.cpp model.
Pictures. Paste screenshots and mockups for vision models.
Thinking on or off. Off, the same bug fix took 40 seconds instead of about 2½ minutes.
Context that lasts. At 80% the conversation is summarised and the work carries on.
MCP tools. Everything in Prestige's tool store becomes agent tools.
