🚀 The latest VS Code release makes it easier to work across repositories and worktrees and delegate tasks to remote agent hosts. 🧵 Here’s what’s new: code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_140

🌐 Delegate agent tasks to connected remote hosts from the Agents window. Your agent can automatically place work based on available resources, including OS, memory, CPU, model, and current session load.

🔁 Skip repeated installs when creating new worktrees. Reuse ignored folders across worktrees to avoid reinstalling dependencies or duplicating large build artifacts.

🤖 Continue the same Copilot agent session across the editor and Agents window. Select the Copilot harness in the chat input to keep working with the same session in either one.

🗂️ Work across repositories or separate worktrees from one agent session. Each chat can use its own folder or worktree, with its own terminal, changes, tasks, and pull request. Enable ⚙️ chat agentHost copilotAgent multiRoot in your user settings.json
