BrowserChatTools When enabled, chat agents can use browser tools to open and interact with pages in the Integrated Browser. ChatAgentAllowedNetworkDomains Allowed domains for network access by agent tools (fetch tool, integrated browser). Applies when `#chat.agent.networkFilter#` or `#chat.agent.sandbox.enabled#` is enabled. When `#chat.agent.sandbox.allowNetwork#` is enabled, all domains are allowed. Supports wildcards like `*.example.com`. When both allowed and denied lists are empty, all domains are blocked. Denied domains (see `#chat.agent.deniedNetworkDomains#`) take precedence. Changes may not take full effect until VS Code is restarted. ChatAgentDeniedNetworkDomains Denied domains for network access by agent tools (fetch tool, integrated browser). Applies when `#chat.agent.networkFilter#` or `#chat.agent.sandbox.enabled#` is enabled. This does not apply when `#chat.agent.sandbox.allowNetwork#` is enabled. Takes precedence over `#chat.agent.allowedNetworkDomains#`. Supports wildcards like `*.example.com`. Changes may not take full effect until VS Code is restarted. ChatAgentExtensionTools Enable using tools contributed by third-party extensions. ChatAgentHostCustomTerminalTool Enable the Agent Host custom terminal tool override for Copilot SDK sessions. ChatAgentMode When enabled, agent mode can be activated from chat and tools in agentic contexts with side effects can be used. ChatAgentNetworkFilter When enabled, network access by agent tools (fetch tool, integrated browser) is restricted according to `#chat.agent.allowedNetworkDomains#` and `#chat.agent.deniedNetworkDomains#`. Domain filtering is also applied to those tools when `#chat.agent.sandbox.enabled#` is enabled. Changes may not take full effect until VS Code is restarted. ChatAllowedMcpServers Allowlist of Model Context Protocol servers. When set, only servers matching an entry may be installed or run; omit entirely to allow all servers (subject to the deny list). ChatAllowManagedHooksOnly Allows hooks only from enterprise-managed sources and plugins force-enabled by policy. ChatAllowManagedMcpServersOnly Use only the enterprise-managed MCP allowlist when deciding which servers may run. ChatApprovedAccountOrganizations Setting this policy to a non-empty list activates the Approved Account gate: all AI features are disabled until the user signs into a GitHub account whose organizations intersect this list AND the account-side policy data has resolved. Comparison is case-insensitive. Use '*' as a wildcard to accept any signed-in GitHub or GHE account (use this for GHE deployments where the organization list is not surfaced). ChatDefaultModel Sets the default chat model for new conversations. Accepts "auto", a model family name (such as "opus" or "gemini"), or a full model id. Users can still switch the model within a conversation. ChatDeniedMcpServers Denylist of Model Context Protocol servers. Servers matching any entry are blocked from being installed or run, even if they also match the allow list; deny rules always take precedence. ChatEditorPreferCopilotHarness Configure whether VS Code uses the Agent Host Copilot SDK instead of the local harness for new editor chat sessions. ChatEnabledPlugins Plugin enablement. Keys are plugin IDs in `{plugin}@{marketplace}` form; values enable or disable the plugin. ChatExtraMarketplaces Additional plugin marketplaces to query. Keys are marketplace names; values are GitHub shorthand (`owner/repo[#ref]`) or Git URIs (`{url}[#ref]`), optionally with an enterprise-managed auto-update override. ChatHooks Controls whether chat hooks are executed at strategic points during an agent's workflow. Hooks are loaded from the files configured in `#chat.hookFilesLocations#`. This setting is only used by the Local agent harness. ChatMCP Controls access to installed Model Context Protocol servers. No access to MCP servers. Allows access to MCP servers listed in the registry that VS Code is connected to. Allow access to any installed MCP server. ChatPluginsEnabled Enable agent plugin integration in chat. ChatStrictMarketplaces Allowlist of plugin marketplace sources. When set, only marketplaces matching an entry are trusted; an empty array blocks all marketplaces. ChatStrictPluginOnlyCustomization Blocks standalone user and workspace skills, agents, hooks, instructions, and MCP servers while keeping eligible plugin customizations available. ChatToolsAutoApprove Global auto approve also known as "YOLO mode" disables manual approval completely for all tools in all workspaces, allowing the agent to act fully autonomously. This is extremely dangerous and is *never* recommended, even containerized environments like Codespaces and Dev Containers have user keys forwarded into the container that could be compromised. This feature disables critical security protections and makes it much easier for an attacker to compromise the machine. Note: This setting only controls tool approval and does not prevent the agent from asking questions. To automatically answer agent questions, use the `#chat.autoReply#` setting. ChatToolsEligibleForAutoApproval Controls which tools are eligible for automatic approval. Tools set to 'false' will always present a confirmation and will never offer the option to auto-approve. The default behavior (or setting a tool to 'true') may result in the tool offering auto-approval options. Claude3PIntegration Enable Claude Agent sessions in VS Code. Start and resume agentic coding sessions powered by Anthropic Claude Agent SDK directly in the editor. Uses your existing Copilot subscription. Codex3PIntegration Enable Codex Agent sessions in VS Code. Start and resume agentic coding sessions powered by OpenAI Codex. Usage can be routed through GitHub Copilot or authenticated directly with an OpenAI account. CopilotNextEditSuggestions Whether to enable next edit suggestions (NES). NES can propose a next edit based on your recent changes. CopilotOtelCaptureContent Controls whether Copilot OpenTelemetry export captures prompt, response, and tool content. CopilotOtelEnabled Controls whether Copilot OpenTelemetry export is enabled. When managed, users cannot override the enterprise value. CopilotOtelEndpoint Controls the enterprise-managed OTLP collector endpoint for Copilot OpenTelemetry export. CopilotOtelHeaders Controls the enterprise-managed OTLP exporter headers for Copilot OpenTelemetry export. CopilotOtelOtlpProtocol Controls the enterprise-managed OTLP wire protocol (protobuf vs JSON) for Copilot OpenTelemetry export. CopilotOtelOutfile Prevents local file export when enterprise-managed Copilot OpenTelemetry export is configured. CopilotOtelProtocol Controls the enterprise-managed OTLP protocol for Copilot OpenTelemetry export. Use OTLP over HTTP. Use OTLP over gRPC. Console exporter is not selected by enterprise managed settings. File exporter is not selected by enterprise managed settings. CopilotOtelResourceAttributes Controls the enterprise-managed OTel resource attributes for Copilot OpenTelemetry export. CopilotOtelServiceName Controls the enterprise-managed OTel `service.name` resource attribute for Copilot OpenTelemetry export. CopilotReviewAgent Enables the code review agent.

Use the on-device transcription model. Audio does not leave the device. Use the cloud transcription service. Audio is streamed to the service. McpEnterpriseManagedAuthIdp The OAuth/OIDC IdP configuration used for enterprise-managed Model Context Protocol (MCP) server authentication. McpGalleryServiceUrl Configure the MCP Gallery service URL to connect to AllowedExtensions Specify a list of extensions that are allowed to use. This helps maintain a secure and consistent development environment by restricting the use of unauthorized extensions. More information: https://aka.ms/vscode/enterprise/extensions/allowed ExtensionGalleryAuthProvider Configure the authentication provider for the Extensions Marketplace Authenticate to the Extensions Marketplace using GitHub. Authenticate to the Extensions Marketplace using a Microsoft (Entra ID) account. ExtensionGalleryServiceUrl Configure the Marketplace service URL to connect to ExtensionsAutoUpdate Controls the automatic update behavior of extensions. The updates are fetched from a Microsoft online service. Download and install updates automatically only for enabled extensions. Extensions are not automatically updated. ExtensionsAutoUpdateDelay Controls the delay in hours after an extension update is published before it is automatically installed. Only applies when `#extensions.autoUpdate#` is set to `on`. This delay helps avoid installing potentially problematic updates immediately after release. ChatAgentSandboxAllowAutoApprove Controls whether agent mode terminal commands that run inside the sandbox are auto-approved. When disabled, the run in terminal tool uses the existing approval flow. This applies only when `#chat.agent.sandbox.enabled#` is enabled. ChatAgentSandboxAllowNetwork When `#chat.agent.sandbox.enabled#` is enabled, controls whether to allow all network domains in the sandbox. When enabled, the sandbox preserves file system restrictions while relaxing all network restrictions. ChatAgentSandboxAllowUnsandboxedCommands Controls whether agent mode terminal commands can run outside the sandbox after user confirmation when a sandboxed command fails or when sandbox restrictions would block the command. This applies only when `#chat.agent.sandbox.enabled#` is enabled. ChatAgentSandboxEnabled Controls whether agent mode uses sandboxing to restrict what tools can do. When enabled, tools like the terminal are run in a sandboxed environment to limit access to the system. Use `#chat.agent.sandbox.allowNetwork#` to allow all network domains. Disable sandboxing for agent mode tools. Enable sandboxing for agent mode tools. ChatToolsTerminalEnableAutoApprove Controls whether to allow auto approval in the run in terminal tool.
