# Qiskit Code Assistant

## 29 May 2026

- **Qiskit Code Assistant service discontinued** - The preview service has been discontinued and the Visual Studio Code and JupyterLab extensions have been archived.

  Based on feedback and usage patterns, more users are running Qiskit Code Assistant models locally and working in editor integrations that are already part of their development workflow.

  Qiskit Code Assistant models remain available for local use. See the [Qiskit Code Assistant](/docs/guides/qiskit-code-assistant) documentation for more information.
