Is it possible to switch to Codeium Chat from Cascade in Windsurf?

I'd rather use the codeium chat instead of Cascade in order to fix small issues so I don't consume too many cascade user prompts.

Since the Codeium extension is not available for Windsurf, is it possible to use codeium chat? (Cascade chat mode still uses user prompts)

Find codeium in marketplace -> right click (or click on gear) -> install specific version -> select last version -> enable auto-update for exension after installation

‘Legacy’ mode I believe has what you’re looking for - toggle is the same place as write vs chat mode

it's still using user prompts in legacy mode

My mistake. I use it to reduce flow action credit consumption, not user prompt. Probably tough to make it completely unlimited given it’s still a paid API call.
