Anaconda Assistant, the AI coding assistant included with Anaconda Toolbox, is available in your local (desktop) instance of JupyterLab, too! As the Assistant is virtually identical to its cloud counterpart in Anaconda Notebooks, you can refer to our Anaconda Assistant quickstart guide for guidance on using the Assistant.

Installing Anaconda Assistant

You can enable and access the Assistant in a local JupyterLab instance through either the command line interface (CLI) or Navigator, the graphical user interface (GUI) that is automatically installed with Anaconda.

The number of prompts you can make to the Assistant per day differs based on your subscription tier. See our pricing page for further details.

Refer to our Anaconda Assistant quickstart guide for guidance on using the Assistant.

Updating Anaconda Assistant

You can update the Assistant through either the CLI or Navigator, the GUI that is automatically installed with Anaconda.

Uninstalling Anaconda Assistant

You can remove the Assistant from your local instance of Jupyterlab through either the CLI or Navigator, the GUI that is automatically installed with Anaconda.

As JupyterLab is a requirement for the Assistant, it is also removed when uninstalling the Assistant. To reinstall JupyterLab without the Assistant, run the following command:

conda install jupyterlab
