@code is neat

[Tyler Leonhardt - @code @TylerLeonhardt]

At #MicrosoftBuild on Wednesday, I have 2 (well, 3) talks! Come thruuu :)

12:30PM AND 5PM: "MCP does way more than you think" with @ConnorPeet

12:45: *sprint across the room to...*

1:10PM: "Claude Is in Copilot (@code). Here's What That Actually Means" with @burkeholland

[Osvaldo Ortega @osvaldoortegav]

Coding from my browser is fun #codamente

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@Tyriar It's been a fork of vscode all along

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@joshuacc @Meligy Compaction has gotten a *lot* better in the last few months -- do you still have issues with it recently? (/which models if so?)

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@Nico48438041 @pierceboggan @code Hit the "gear" icon in the top right and you can hide models you don't use!

[Visual Studio Code @code]

🚀 A new @code weekly release is here!

One of our favorite features is integrated browser debugging, which lets you debug your web app end-to-end without leaving the editor.

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@RhysSullivan now that we have a nice `askQuestions` tool, I need to move elictation to use that so you'd get a bit nicer UI in this case 👀

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@david_dossett @BieleckiPawel @code Change the setting `chat.requestQueuing.defaultAction` :)

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@OrenMe @code @burkeholland @pierceboggan 👀

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@OrenMe @code Yes! Marketplaces are just git repos, and you can point to a private git repo on Github or elsewhere via `chat.plugins.marketplaces`

Update is not a thing yet, but it will be in March.

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@OrenMe @code You're always very on top of things :) Lots more changes and improvements coming Monday, this is very much a "v0" so far.

[Visual Studio Code @code]

You told us you’re running multiple AI agents and wanted a better UX. We listened and shipped it!

Here’s what’s new in the latest @code release:

🗂️ Unified agent sessions workspace for local, background, and cloud agents
💻 Claude and Codex support for local and cloud agents
🔀 Parallel subagents
🌐 Integrated browser
And more...

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

@notparbez @burkeholland @code You can make a tool/MCP App that does this. You'd just wait for the user to interact with the App before returning your tool result.

[Kayla Cinnamon ☕ @ #MicrosoftBuild @cinnamon_msft]

VS Code just announced MCP Apps support! 🔥

Here's one I just made that visualizes git commit history. You can also multi-select commits and have Copilot generate release notes for you!

Check out how to get started with MCP Apps in VS Code here: https://t.co/Ak2couNgtd #vscode

[Visual Studio Code @code]

Today, the MCP community is announcing MCP Apps, the first official MCP extension. @code is the first major AI code editor with full MCP Apps support.

With MCP Apps, tool calls can now return interactive UI components that render directly in the conversation. Learn more: https://t.co/CyrbuqP330

[jeppeReinhold 🇩🇰 @DrReinhold]

Here's a little sneak peak into the experimental @storybookjs MCP server we're still working hard on. 👀

@code being so quick to add support for MCP features like MCP Apps is absolutely fantastic. 🙏 And a special thanks to @ConnorPeet for the collaboration.

[Oren Melamed @OrenMe]

MCP Apps in @code - now for real

I added support in https://t.co/LHOyOXx01u MCP to test it out
This is more than cool - it lets apps expose only what matters in chat, without dragging the whole site along.

Think Jira tasks, graph descriptions, sliced stats - still text for agents, now with a purpose-built visual UI.

It's mind blowing how fast @code adopts the MCP spec to its fullest - thanks again @ConnorPeet

Still behind a flag and only in Insiders - chat.mcp.apps.enabled: true

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

hope this helps use your mouse a little bit less :)

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

Did you know you can look for more than just files in @code's Ctrl/Cmd+P?

Just add a character in front. You've probably seen `>` for commands, but did you know that there's...

[Connor Peet @ConnorPeet]

`debug` starts debugging and `view` focuses a view!
