What is the difference between AI Code Insights and connectors?

AI Code Insights and DX connectors provide complementary data. Most organizations use both.

AI Code Insights (daemon)

The daemon runs on developer machines and provides:

• Code attribution: What percentage of committed code is AI-generated, broken down by team, repository, and agent.
• Session transcripts: Full message text from supported agents, scrubbed for secrets and PII.
• Agent Experience scoring: Per-session evaluation of agent friction and effectiveness.
• AI dollar impact: Estimated dollar value of AI agent usage based on code attribution and efficiency data.

Requires the daemon to be installed on developer machines.

Connectors

Connectors pull data from the provider’s API and provide:

• Adoption rates: How many developers are actively using each agent.
• Usage bands: Distribution of usage across the organization.
• Token consumption: Input, output, and cache token counts per session.
• Billing data: Spend and cost data from the provider.

Does not require the daemon. Configured under Admin → Connections.
