Abstract
Some embodiments determine automatically which synthesized or otherwise autocreated suggestions for source code editing are presented to developers. Some filter out autocreated coding suggestions that have not been sufficiently endorsed by a developer's team, based on a suggestion trust score. The trust score may reflect the suggestion's adoption in a particular repository or codebase, or affiliation of the suggestion with a library release, or an actual or implied review of the suggestion by team members. Some suggestion filters enhance existing development team code review practices, by offering endorsed suggestions in autocompletion or analysis interfaces of tools and by withholding non-endorsed suggestions from display. Context illustrating the autocreated suggestion's provenance may be displayed to help developers decide whether to adopt the suggestion themselves while editing code. Some tools that are enhanced with suggestion filtering functionality avoid developer configuration burdens while increasing consistent adoption of endorsed suggestions inside a codebase.
