"Agent Skills, now generally available and enabled by default, allow developers to package specialized capabilities or domain expertise into reusable workflows. Skill folders contain tested instructions for specific domains like testing strategies, API design, or performance optimization, Microsoft said. A preview feature, Copilot Memory, allows developers to store and recall important information across sessions. Agents work smarter with Copilot Memory and experience faster code search with external indexing, according to Microsoft."
"Users can enable Copilot Memory by setting github.copilot.chat.copilotMemory.enabled to true. VS Code 1.109 also adds Claude Agent support, enabling developers to leverage Anthropic's agent SDK directly. The new release also adds support for MCP apps, which render interactive visualizations in chat. The update also introduces terminal sandboxing, an experimental capability that restricts file and network access for agent-executed commands, and auto-approval rules, which skip confirmation for safe operations."
