<Note>
  This page is primarily relevant to Enterprise plans, which continue to support [Code Completions](/using-augment/completions). On non-Enterprise plans (the former Indie, Standard, Max, and Legacy plans), Code Completions support was deprecated on March 31, 2026, so conflicts with other inline-completion assistants are no longer expected.

## About additional code assistants

Augment is a code assistant that integrates into your favorite IDE's code suggestion system. When multiple code assistants are enabled, they can conflict with each other and cause unexpected behavior. There are multiple ways to prevent conflicts, including uninstalling the additional code assistants or disabling them. For the most up to date instructions on disabling other assistants, please refer to their documentation.
