The VS Code Agents window (Preview) is a dedicated window in VS Code, built for an agent-first workflow.
It's the natural complement to the VS Code editor window: the editor window is optimized for code-centric work in a single workspace, while the Agents window is optimized for orchestrating higher-level tasks across projects, with chat and the sessions list as the primary interface. In this video, we'll explore how to get started with the Agents window.
📌 Learn more about the Agents window in our documentation: http://aka.ms/VSCode/Agents/docs
The Agents window is currently in preview, and we're actively shaping it based on developer feedback. We'd love to hear from you.
