Submits ML training jobs to AWS SageMaker backend via REST API calls triggered from VS Code sidebar or command palette, handling job lifecycle management (creation, monitoring, termination) without local execution. The extension acts as a thin client that serializes project configuration and hyperparameters into SageMaker API requests, polling the backend for status updates and streaming live training logs back to the editor via WebSocket or HTTP long-polling.
Unique: Integrates SageMaker training submission directly into VS Code sidebar with live log streaming and cost tracking, eliminating context switching to AWS console or CLI tools. Uses auto-detection of ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, XGBoost, HuggingFace) from project structure to pre-configure training environments without manual setup.
vs alternatives: Faster than AWS CLI or console-based training submission because it detects frameworks automatically and provides one-click job submission from the editor, while SageMaker Studio requires separate browser context and manual environment configuration.
Scans the current VS Code project folder to identify installed ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, XGBoost, HuggingFace) by analyzing imports in Python files, requirements.txt, or setup.py. When no framework is detected, offers template scaffolding that generates a starter train.py with framework-specific boilerplate code and a default hyperparameter configuration suitable for SageMaker execution.
Unique: Performs static analysis of project imports and dependency files to auto-detect ML frameworks without user input, then generates SageMaker-compatible train.py templates with framework-specific training loops and hyperparameter defaults. This eliminates manual framework selection and boilerplate coding.
vs alternatives: Faster than manual project setup or cookiecutter templates because it infers framework from existing code and generates SageMaker-ready training scripts in one command, whereas generic ML templates require manual framework selection and SageMaker-specific modifications.
Polls the Pipedream backend at configurable intervals (default unknown, configurable via pipedream.autoRefreshInterval setting) to fetch live training logs from SageMaker jobs and streams them to a VS Code output panel. Displays job status (running, completed, failed) and allows users to view logs without switching to AWS console. Implements auto-refresh with configurable polling frequency to balance responsiveness and API call overhead.
Unique: Integrates SageMaker log streaming directly into VS Code output panel with configurable polling intervals, eliminating need to open AWS console or use CLI tools. Displays live training progress alongside code editor, enabling parallel development and monitoring.
vs alternatives: More convenient than AWS console log viewing because logs appear in the editor without context switching, and more responsive than manual CLI polling because it automates refresh cycles, though polling-based approach introduces latency compared to event-driven log streaming.
Provides UI commands to upload local dataset files to SageMaker-compatible storage (likely S3 via Pipedream backend) and download trained model artifacts back to the local project folder. Handles file serialization and transfer via REST API calls to the Pipedream orchestrator, which manages AWS credentials and S3 bucket configuration server-side. Users select local files or folders and the extension batches them for upload without manual S3 configuration.
Unique: Abstracts S3 bucket management and AWS credential handling server-side, allowing users to upload/download datasets via simple file picker UI without configuring S3 or managing credentials. Pipedream backend handles all AWS API interactions and credential management.
vs alternatives: Simpler than manual S3 CLI or boto3 uploads because it eliminates credential configuration and bucket setup, though less flexible than direct S3 access for advanced use cases like versioning or lifecycle policies.
Provides a form-based UI in the VS Code sidebar for setting training hyperparameters (learning rate, batch size, epochs, optimizer, etc.) with framework-specific defaults. Serializes user-configured hyperparameters into JSON and submits them alongside the training script to the Pipedream backend, which passes them to SageMaker as environment variables or job configuration. The extension validates basic parameter types (numeric ranges, enum selections) before submission.
Unique: Provides framework-aware hyperparameter UI with sensible defaults for PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, and XGBoost, eliminating manual parameter entry or CLI flag usage. Integrates parameter configuration directly into VS Code sidebar workflow.
vs alternatives: More intuitive than CLI-based parameter passing or manual train.py editing because it provides visual form with framework-specific defaults, though less flexible than programmatic hyperparameter optimization tools like Optuna or Ray Tune.
Implements commands to start training jobs (Run Training), terminate active jobs (Stop Training), and poll job status from SageMaker backend. Maintains in-memory state of active jobs and displays status in sidebar or status bar. Uses REST API calls to Pipedream backend to submit job termination requests and fetch current job state. Provides visual indicators (icons, status text) for job states (queued, running, completed, failed).
Unique: Centralizes training job control (start, stop, status) in VS Code sidebar, eliminating context switching to AWS console. Provides real-time status polling with visual indicators for job states.
vs alternatives: More convenient than AWS console job management because job control is integrated into the editor, though less feature-rich than SageMaker Studio which provides advanced job monitoring, logs, and metrics visualization.
Displays estimated or actual AWS spending for training jobs and monitors usage against Pipedream plan quotas (job count, compute hours, storage). Fetches cost data from Pipedream backend (which aggregates SageMaker billing) and displays in sidebar or status bar. Implements quota checking before job submission to prevent overage. Cost tracking is updated periodically or on-demand via Check Quota command.
Unique: Integrates AWS cost visibility and quota enforcement directly into VS Code, preventing accidental overspending by blocking job submission when quotas are exceeded. Aggregates SageMaker billing data server-side and displays in editor.
vs alternatives: More accessible than AWS Billing Console because cost data appears in the editor without context switching, though less detailed than AWS Cost Explorer which provides granular cost breakdowns and forecasting.
Implements secure API key storage and configuration via VS Code Secrets API (or similar secure storage mechanism). Users run 'Pipedream: Configure API Key' command, which opens a prompt to enter/update their Pipedream API key. The extension stores the key securely in VS Code's credential storage and uses it for all subsequent API calls to the Pipedream backend. Supports key rotation and validation on first use.
Unique: Uses VS Code's built-in Secrets API for secure credential storage, eliminating need for users to manage API keys in config files or environment variables. Integrates authentication into extension setup workflow.
vs alternatives: More secure than environment variable or config file storage because credentials are encrypted by VS Code, though less flexible than OAuth2 which would eliminate manual key management entirely.
