Just-released Visual Studio Code 1.107, the latest version of Microsoft’s popular code editor, introduces multi-agent orchestration, a new feature that allows developers to use GitHub Copilot and custom agents together to speed up software development tasks.

Released December 10 and also referred to as the November 2025 release, Visual Studio Code 1.107 can be downloaded for Windows, Mac, and Linux from visualstudio.com.

With multi-agent orchestration, developers can use Agent HQ to manage multiple agents, delegate work across local, background, and cloud agents, and allow GitHub Copilot and custom agents to collaborate across tasks, Microsoft said. Background agents run in isolated workspaces to not interfere with active work and to enable multiple background tasks to run in parallel. An experimental feature allows custom agents to be used as background agents. Once enabled, custom agents defined in the .github/agents folder will appear in the agent list. Additionally, agent sessions have been integrated into the Chat view to give a unified experience when working with agents.

VS Code 1.107 also adds support for the latest specification of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), 2025-11-25, which includes URL mode elicitation, tasks for long-running tool calls and client work, and enhancements to enum choices in elicitation. And the GitHub remote MCP Server now is provided as a built-in MCP server in the GitHub Copilot Chat extension, providing seamless integration with GitHub repositories and services, according to Microsoft.

Other improvements emphasized in VS Code 1.107 include the following:

• Developers can try out the planned TypeScript 7.0 release, featuring a rewrite in native code for better performance, by installing the TypeScript (Native Preview) extension.
• Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) support enables users to sign in through a native experience on Intel Macs and Linux x64, along with existing support for Windows x64 and MacOS M-series (ARM). This enables nice single sign-on flows and is the recommended way of acquiring a Microsoft authentication session, according to Microsoft. The MSAL team will enable this for remaining platforms (Windows ARM, Linux ARM, and additional distros) over time.
• Improvements to the editor experience enable developers to more easily identify open projects, swipe to navigate on MacOS, and choose when to hover popups.
• A new model is offered for next edit suggestions, intended to offer significantly better acceptance and dismissal performance.
• For debugging, developers now can attach variables, scopes, and expressions to chat context in VS Code. This can be done by right-clicking on data in the Variables and Watch views, or by using the Add Context button in chat.
• Terminal Suggest now is enabled for stable users, offering inline completions and contextual hints while typing shell commands.
