jupyter_ai_tutor

A JupyterLab extension to add an AI-powered tutor assistant to Notebooks.

demo.webm

It currently relies on jupyter-ai-jupyternaut for the agent, it needs to be installed (pip install jupyter_ai_tutor[server]).

Once Jupyterlab started, the model must be configured via the menu Settings>Jupyternaut settings (model and API key).

Requirements

• JupyterLab >= 4.0.0
• jupyter-ai-jupyternaut (currently the only agent compatible)

Install

To install the extension, execute:

pip install jupyter_ai_tutor[server]

Uninstall

To remove the extension, execute:

pip uninstall jupyter_ai_tutor

AI Coding Assistant Support

This project includes an AGENTS.md file with coding standards and best practices for JupyterLab extension development. The file follows the AGENTS.md standard for cross-tool compatibility.

Compatible AI Tools

AGENTS.md works with AI coding assistants that support the standard, including Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Aider, and others. For a current list of compatible tools, see the AGENTS.md standard. This project also includes symlinks for tool-specific compatibility:

• CLAUDE.md → AGENTS.md (for Claude Code)

• GEMINI.md → AGENTS.md (for Gemini Code Assist)

Other conventions you might encounter:

• .cursorrules - Cursor's YAML/JSON format (Cursor also supports AGENTS.md natively)
• CONVENTIONS.md / CONTRIBUTING.md - For CodeConventions.ai and GitHub bots
• Project-specific rules in JetBrains AI Assistant settings

All tool-specific files should be symlinks to AGENTS.md as the single source of truth.

What's Included

The AGENTS.md file provides guidance on:

• Code quality rules and file-scoped validation commands
• Naming conventions for packages, plugins, and files
• Coding standards (TypeScript)
• Development workflow and debugging
• Common pitfalls and how to avoid them

Customization

You can edit AGENTS.md to add project-specific conventions or adjust guidelines to match your team's practices. The file uses plain Markdown with Do/Don't patterns and references to actual project files.

Note: AGENTS.md is living documentation. Update it when you change conventions, add dependencies, or discover new patterns. Include AGENTS.md updates in commits that modify workflows or coding standards.
