What is continue?
- continue supports browser task automation, web operations, or web data workflows.
- Best fit: Developers who need AI-assisted web tasks, browser testing, page extraction, or structured web operations.
- Not for: Not for workflows that cannot isolate browser state, account permissions, cookies, or real user data.
- Capability added to an AI workflow: Browser automation task planning, permission boundaries, recovery steps, and acceptance checks
- First safe verification step: Verify one minimal web task with an isolated browser profile and test account first.
- Verification state: source, Quick Start, and sandbox install checks are recorded as passed.
- Top risk: The main risk is misusing browser state, account permissions, cookies, or real data during automation.
- Evidence base: https://github.com/continuedev/continue, https://github.com/continuedev/continue#readme, Human Manual, Pitfall Log

AI Context Pack and portable assets
After deciding to continue, take the project context into your own AI host.Complete pack plus user-owned assets
These files are planning and verification assets for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, ChatGPT, and other AI hosts.

Preflight checks
Treat this page as a planning asset, not proof that your local environment is ready.- The manual is generated from source-linked project files and Doramagic validation signals.
- Community evidence warnings stay visible instead of being converted into marketing claims.
- This English page is indexable because the locale quality gate passed and explicit English index approval is enabled.
- Use the upstream repository as the final authority for installation commands, license, and version-specific behavior.
