🚀 v1.101 of VS Code is here! Check out what’s new: - Supporting all MCP spec capabilities - Chat tool sets - Copilot coding agent integration - Source Control Graph improvements …and so much more: aka.ms/VSCodeRelease 🧶 Here are some of the highlights…

VS Code is the first editor supporting all MCP spec capabilities! 🎉 We've implemented support for MCP's full spec, including prompts, resources, sampling (experimental), authentication, and dev mode. This enables you to manage and interact with AI models more securely and efficiently.

Browse, add, and save resources from MCP servers for use in chat or your workspace.

With MCP sampling (experimental), MCP servers can request actions from the model, but your confirmation is always required on first use. You have full control over which models each server can access and can review detailed sampling logs at any time using the MCP: List Servers command.

🔒 Connect to MCP servers requiring user authentication, with support for the latest authorization spec. Manage server and account access, use both code/device flows, and easily remove auth providers right from VS Code.
