-![qodeassist-icon](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/dc336712-83cb-440d-8761-8d0a31de898d) **QodeAssist** brings a full AI coding workflow to Qt Creator for C++ and QML — smart code completion, multi-panel chat, inline quick refactoring, and project-aware tool calling. It works with local runtimes (Ollama, llama.cpp, LM Studio) and cloud providers (Claude, OpenAI, Google AI, Mistral), and can also run as an **MCP server** so other clients reuse its project context.
