Formerly CodeiumThe Codeium plugin line is now branded as Windsurf Plugin, bringing AI coding assistance to supported IDEs and editors.
About Windsurf Plugin (formerly Codeium)
Codeium was rebranded as Windsurf, and the extension product is now called Windsurf Plugin. This page remains on the historical Codeium URL so readers searching the old brand can understand the current product path.
Windsurf Plugins bring AI coding assistance such as autocomplete, chat, and command workflows into supported IDEs and editors. The JetBrains local plugin remains an active path, while the official documentation marks several older plugins, including VS Code, Vim/Neovim, Visual Studio, Jupyter, Chrome, and Eclipse, as maintenance mode.
For current pricing, usage limits, and plan availability, use the Windsurf account and pricing pages rather than relying on legacy Codeium plan descriptions.
Key Features

Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- ✅ Historical Codeium users have a clear migration path into the current Windsurf plugin ecosystem
- ✅ JetBrains local plugin remains an actively supported integration path
- ✅ Autocomplete, Chat, and Command workflows remain available across documented plugin surfaces
- ✅ Broad editor coverage helps teams that cannot standardize on one IDE
⚠️ Cons
- ⚠️ The old Codeium brand can confuse buyers because current products and billing are under Windsurf/Devin branding
- ⚠️ Several older plugin surfaces are in maintenance mode rather than receiving the newest editor-only capabilities
- ⚠️ Current plan pricing and usage rules should be checked on the official account pages because the billing model has changed over time
- ⚠️ The plugin experience is not identical across IDEs, so teams should test their exact editor before rollout
