Description

HelioCloud now includes the Jupyter AI extension, which brings frontier coding agents such as Codex, Claude, Copilot, Gemini, Goose, Mistral Vibe, and OpenCode into JupyterLab. Users can connect their agent of choice to Jupyter AI in HelioCloud and begin developing notebooks with AI assistance. In this presentation, we provide a real-time demonstration of Jupyter AI in HelioCloud using a practical heliophysics problem. We also introduce resources designed to help users become familiar with Jupyter AI and AI-assisted coding more broadly. These include a “getting started” tutorial notebook; a notebook reviewing Jupyter AI’s capabilities such as MCP server integration and tool use; and a notebook that evaluates a model’s effectiveness on common coding tasks, including test design and debugging. HelioCloud users without a paid or enterprise AI subscription will also find guidance for accessing free, yet still highly capable, agents. Together, the demonstration and supporting resources are intended to help heliophysics researchers begin using AI-assisted coding effectively within their existing computational workflows in HelioCloud.
