Release Notes

Tab, Tab, Dead We're removing Amp Tab. It is not part of the future that we see. A year ago, most of our code was written by hand. In June, when we released Amp Tab, Amp was already writing the majority of our code. But now, Amp writes 90% of what we ship. Amp Tab and other completion engines come from a world in which everyone believed humans will write most of the code and AI is sprinkled on top. But that world is dying! Look around! Some of our users are saying they haven't opened their editor in days and yet still shipped code. The bottleneck is now how fast you can get the code out, not how fast you can write it, they say. The era of tab completion is coming to an end. We're entering the post-agentic age, in which it's a given that agents write most of the code. There's so much to figure out, so much to build, so much to explore! We have to choose what to focus on. We're focusing on what's coming next, not what brought us here. Amp Tab will continue to work until the end of January 2026. After that, we can recommend Cursor, Copilot, or Zed if you need inline completions. Here's Quinn and Thorsten on the end of Amp Tab and how they feel about it (Quinn will miss it):
