TABNINE.md

Section titled “TABNINE.md”

Contains instructions for Tabnine to prefer context_search for code retrieval. The CCE block is wrapped in markers so your own content is preserved.

Auto-detection

Section titled “Auto-detection”

CCE detects Tabnine when a .tabnine/ directory exists in your project root. No explicit --agent flag is needed.
