Welcome to the January 2026 release of Visual Studio Code. In this release, we are further evolving VS Code to make it the **home for multi-agent development**. * **Chat UX**: chat just feels better and snappier with faster streaming, improved reasoning results, and a revamped editor inline chat * **Agent Session Management**: it's now easier to delegate tasks to agents across local, background, and cloud and jump in when needed * **Agent Customization**: build your own workflows using agent orchestrations, and have consistent results with Agent Skills and organization-wide customizations * **Agent Extensibility**: reuse your knowledge with Claude agent support and new Anthropic model capabilities, and enjoy rich chat interactions with MCP Apps * **Agent Optimizations**: agents work smarter with Copilot Memory and experience faster code search with external indexing * **Agent Security & Trust**: feel confident running terminal commands with sandboxing and effective auto-approval rules * **Workbench & productivity**: test your apps without leaving the editor with the new integrated browser <img width="2400" height="1350" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0eaf57e8-faff-42f3-97b1-f24cd7953306" />
