Fig AI
Fig AI (Discontinued) — Migrate to Amazon Q CLI
Fig was a popular command-line productivity tool with autocomplete and IDE integrations, but it has been officially sunset in favor of Amazon Q for command line.
Overview
Fig AI was once a beloved upgrade to the traditional terminal, bringing modern conveniences like intelligent autocomplete, visual command line completions, and seamless integration with popular shells, terminals, and IDEs. Developers, sysadmins, and DevOps engineers relied on Fig to speed up their workflow with contextual suggestions that made navigating complex CLI commands far less tedious.
However, Fig has officially been discontinued, with access ending on September 1, 2024. The team behind Fig has pointed all existing users toward Amazon Q for command line as the recommended successor, which builds on many of the same concepts Fig pioneered—like smart completions and terminal integration—but is backed by AWS's infrastructure and ongoing development. If you're still running Fig, it's time to plan your transition.
For anyone who discovers Fig today, it's important to know that the tool is no longer maintained or supported. Instead of installing a dead product, current users should uninstall Fig and move to Amazon Q, which offers a free Individual tier and a direct upgrade path from the old Fig dashboard.
