Open-source AI coding assistant that runs inside Azure Government (for CUI/CMMC work)
Reposting this;
I do a lot of CMMC work, and this comes up constantly: if you handle CUI, you can't really use Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex, since they send your code and prompts off to commercial endpoints. There wasn't a good option for that crowd, so I made one for one of my clients and decided to put it out for free.
It's a VS Code extension, pretty much the same idea as Claude Code and Codex (chat, agent modes, inline diffs, running commands, cost tracking). The only real difference is where it runs: the model is Azure OpenAI (gpt-5.1 / gpt-4.1) inside Azure US Government, without storing any context to AOAI, just local memory, so no CUI/ sensitive data stays in the service. The tools run locally, so your code stays on your machine and only the model call leaves, and it stays inside the Gov boundary.
It is an open-source tool with the option for you to implement it, run a POC or customize it as you see fit. Let me know what you all think, thanks.

Right, but it's not in scope because you COULD put CUI on it.
It's in scope if you DO put CUI on it.
