Use blame during review

AI blame helps you answer:
  • Which agent session introduced this line?
  • Did a human edit the generated code before commit?
  • Which model produced the surrounding implementation?
  • Is the same session responsible for related lines in other files?
Use prompt access according to your organization’s permissions. Prompt content may be local-only, connected but restricted, or unavailable.

Editor support

The Autter VS Code extension can display color-coded AI attribution in the gutter for VS Code and compatible editors such as Cursor, Windsurf, and Antigravity.

JSON for tools
