Beyond Autocomplete: Designing CopilotLens Towards Transparent and Explainable AI Coding Agents

AI-powered code assistants are widely used to generate code completions, significantly boosting developer productivity. However, these tools typically present suggestions without explaining their rationale, leaving their decision-making process inscrutable. This opacity hinders developers’ ability to critically evaluate the output, form accurate mental models, and build calibrated trust in the system. To address this, we introduce COPILOTLENS, a novel interactive framework that reframes code completion from a simple suggestion into a transparent, explainable event. COPILOTLENS operates as an explanation layer that reveals the AI agent’s “thought process” through a dynamic two-level interface, surfacing everything from its reconstructed high-level plans to the specific codebase context influencing the code.
