## Smart Apply code suggestions

Cody lets you dynamically insert code from chat into your files with **Smart Apply**. Every time Cody provides you with a code suggestion, you can click the **Apply** button. Cody will then analyze your open code file, find where that relevant code should live, and add a diff. For chat messages where Cody provides multiple code suggestions, you can apply each in sequence to go from chat suggestions to written code.

Smart Apply also supports executing commands in the terminal. When you ask Cody a question related to terminal commands, you can execute the suggestion in your terminal by clicking the `Execute` button in the chat window.

### Inline code edits

You can directly perform inline edits on your code without opening the chat window.
