| Visual Studio Code supports multiple types of AI-powered agents that can assist with coding tasks, from interactive conversations to autonomous multi-step workflows. Agents in VS Code can operate locally within the editor, run in the background, or remotely in the cloud. The Agents view provides a central interface to manage and track all your agent interactions, across these different environments. | ||
