Qiskit Code Assistant

29 May 2026

Qiskit Code Assistant service discontinued - The preview service has been discontinued and the Visual Studio Code and JupyterLab extensions have been archived.

Based on feedback and usage patterns, more users are running Qiskit Code Assistant models locally and working in editor integrations that are already part of their development workflow.

Qiskit Code Assistant models remain available for local use. See the Qiskit Code Assistant documentation for more information.

We have updated the model available in the service to the newer mistral-small-3.2-24b-qiskit model
We have open-sourced two new models for local inference in Hugging Face:
- Qiskit/mistral-small-3.2-24b-qiskit
- Qiskit/mistral-small-3.2-24b-qiskit-GGUF
