Microsoft’s latest update folds deep C++ understanding into GitHub Copilot’s agent workflows in Visual Studio Code, giving the Copilot agent access to symbol-level code navigation and CMake-aware build/test tools so it can reason about and change C++ code the same way an experienced human...

Executive summary What this note covers: an evidence-driven assessment of the credibility and confidence in the public record for CVE‑2026‑21523 (described in vendor feeds as a GitHub Copilot / Visual Studio Code remote-code-execution / agent-output validation issue), how certain the technical...

Microsoft has moved a major piece of its agent‑engineering story out of the browser and into the editor: the Microsoft Copilot Studio extension for Visual Studio Code is now generally available, letting teams clone, edit, preview, version and sync full Copilot Studio agent definitions from...

Matthew Stafford’s status as an MVP candidate and Visual Studio Code’s new agent development capabilities are two sides of the same coin: AI is moving from novelty into the fabric of both content production and software development, and the speed of that shift is forcing publishers, developers...

Microsoft has pushed Copilot Studio deeper into developer workflows by making the Copilot Studio extension for Visual Studio Code generally available (GA), a move that folds agent authoring, versioning, and deployment into the same toolchain teams already use for application code. Background...

Microsoft’s Copilot push accelerated again this week with two related but distinct developments: the Copilot Studio extension for Visual Studio Code has been declared generally available, and Microsoft’s Copilot-powered partnership with Kenyan startup Zendawa is rolling out practical...

I have a Mac. Why do I need to install MAUI & XCODE & VS Code? When do I use each one? When do I use VS Code; when do I use MAUI; when do I use XCODE?

Microsoft and GitHub released an advisory in November addressing a security feature bypass that affects GitHub Copilot and Visual Studio Code; the issue — publicly tracked under the vendor-assigned identifier CVE-2025-62453 — stems from improper validation of generative AI output and can allow a...

Microsoft has assigned CVE‑2025‑62449 to a path‑traversal / security‑feature bypass in the Visual Studio Code GitHub Copilot Chat extension — a locally exploitable weakness rated CVSS 3.1 = 6.8 (Medium) that Microsoft published on November 11, 2025 and which the vendor marked as addressed in the...

Microsoft and third‑party trackers have published a high‑severity advisory for CVE‑2025‑62222: a command‑injection (remote code execution) flaw in the Visual Studio Code Copilot Chat / agentic AI extension that can be triggered by attacker‑controlled prompt or repository content and, under...

Microsoft has published an advisory for CVE-2025-62453 describing a security feature bypass in GitHub Copilot and Visual Studio Code where improper validation of generative AI output can allow a low‑privileged, authorized user to manipulate AI suggestions and circumvent built‑in safeguards — a...

Microsoft’s move to open-source the inline, “ghost text” completions that power GitHub Copilot’s in-editor suggestions marks a major — and potentially game-changing — step toward making Visual Studio Code a fully open-source AI editor, but some important details remain unconfirmed and merit...

Microsoft’s latest push to make AI agents first-class development artifacts arrives as a pragmatic confluence of tooling, runtime services, and a new “prompt-first” cadence for building agents inside Visual Studio Code — and it changes how teams will prototype, test, and push agentic systems...

So I fjust installed VSC and it led me to an intro video on MSDN (I think). I followed the example and typed out the following four cosnole.log commands. But on running, all I get in the terminal window is the folder path: console.log("------------------------------"); console.log("Rise and...

Windows Weekly’s latest episode arrives like a two‑ton reminder that tech transitions rarely happen on a polite schedule: “Coding Makes Me Cry” (Episode 950) drills into the real-world fallout of Windows 10’s imminent end-of‑support, Microsoft’s evolving recovery and Copilot features, and the...

Microsoft’s Visual Studio Code has folded Anthropic’s Claude 4 into its Copilot toolkit, and the result is a turning point for AI-assisted development: auto model selection in VS Code will now choose Claude Sonnet 4 as the primary backend for many paid Copilot users, while Anthropic’s Claude...
