we are excited to build in the open with the @code community :) code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2025/05/…

Coming soon: @code extensions can contribute models to Copilot: github.com/microsoft/vsco… DMs are open if you're interested in contributing a BYOK provider :)
Now live, GitHub's hosting an AMA on Reddit (r/github) today, July 18, 9-11am PST! Ask about Copilot, MCP server, VS Code v1.102, & more. Join @timrogers , Dimitrios Philliou, & @pierceboggan to dive into the latest releases! 🔗 gh.io/ama
GitHub MCP server has a tool to assign an issue to Copilot Agent! So, you can deep-research and brainstorm the spec etc in the AI tool of your choice and then ask Copilot to implement it.
You know where to find us if you have any feedback 🚀 Also, we’re OSS (unlike the others) vscode core (a great place to open issues btw): github.com/microsoft/vsco… And the copilot chat extension (all the prompts and such): github.com/microsoft/vsco…
embracing an 'abundance mindset' is so much easier with the agents available within @code! personal example: generate 5 versions of a landing page and then ask the agent to build one that incorporates the best elements of each
Copilot coding agent integration is here in @code! Assign an issue to Copilot and watch it get to work in the background. Learn more about the current features in preview and see what's coming next: code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2025/07/…
We’re continuing to improve the deep integration between with GitHub Coding Agent and VS @code , stay tuned and please send us feedbacks 🙏

I am re-visiting VS @code + GitHub Copilot after being on @cursor_ai for a several months and I got to say its really solid. Maybe I will be canceling cursor soon.
The "elicitation" of user input from #MCP in @code is pretty sleek. Here I moved the LaTeX rendering preferences to user input if not set (via env/config), from first tool run to successful render. Sleek as hell, and in a trivial single-file @dotnet run .cs! Source:…
We're now using VS @code for web as the editor for all Shopify online stores! 🔥🔥🔥 Try it today with ?vs=1, rolling out as the default for everybody 🔜

🥳 Another month, another VS Code release! Join the VS Code team tomorrow, Thursday at 8 am PST, as they dive into the latest features from the v1.102 release, like chat improvements, coding agent integration, MCP support GA, and more! ▶️ youtube.com/live/kleJ6i8k_…
the team is continuing to make great progress on Copilot API improvements (thanks @github!) that benefit @code performance and reliability, including: - improved time to first token - large reduction in rate limiting - improvements in apply edits perf - reduction in…
It's worth the time to set up custom instructions for VS Code Copilot on a per-file-type basis. The output is so much better the first time around.
I get *a lot* of inbound from 17-22yo trying to figure out what to do bc of AI. My advice: Programming is the API for maximizing leverage in an AGI world. It’s a useful skillset in all fields that takes <20hrs to learn and compounds over time. AI + code gives you superpowers.
