## Why CodeBuddy teams choose Ultracite

Tencent Cloud CodeBuddy is a next-generation AI code editor powered by the Tencent Yuanbao Code large model.  
Combines memory, settings, and hooks

CodeBuddy can pair shared VS Code-style workspace settings with both a branded memory file and project-level hooks, so editor behavior and AI cleanup stay aligned in one repo contract.  
Covers both pre- and post-edit quality

Using `CODEBUDDY.md` makes repo guidance explicit before CodeBuddy generates code, while hooks in `.codebuddy/settings.json` can clean up what is still auto-fixable after edits land. 
Fits existing VS Code-style collaboration

The setup stays familiar for teams already standardizing on `.vscode/settings.json`, which keeps onboarding simple even in an AI-heavy editor.

## Workflow tips for CodeBuddy

Keep Ultracite present in the day-to-day CodeBuddy workflow with a few editor-specific habits, not just a one-time setup.

1. Generate `.vscode/settings.json` so CodeBuddy follows the same formatter, code actions, and TypeScript defaults as the rest of the repo.
2. Add `CODEBUDDY.md` to give CodeBuddy a committed memory file that reflects Ultracite's coding standards.
3. Enable `.codebuddy/settings.json` when you want Ultracite to run after CodeBuddy `Write` and `Edit` actions and clean up AI-generated changes automatically.
