## Tracking delegated work in VS Code (v1.136+)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When an agent delegates work to multiple chats, VS Code's **Agents window** now shows those chats as children of their parent session in the sessions list, so you can see which chats belong together instead of managing a flat list of unrelated sessions. Each chat row shows its own title, status, and pending approvals. A delegated request also includes a source link (for example **Sent by another session**) so you can jump straight back to whichever session or chat initiated it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This pairs with **improved workspace resolution**: agents can resolve a workspace by project name (for example, "run this in the vscode workspace") in addition to absolute paths, which simplifies prompts that hand off work across multiple repositories.

### Customize
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Customize** *(v1.1.13+)* is a single place in the Copilot app to browse and manage everything that extends your agents: plugins, skills, MCP servers, and canvases. Instead of hunting through separate settings pages, open **Customize** to:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Browse **Featured** integrations (for example Azure DevOps or Figma) and install them with one click
|
||||||
|
- See what's already **Installed**, with consistent icons and source labels across plugin, skill, MCP server, canvas, and connector types
|
||||||
|
- Create, edit, or remove your own **personal skills** directly in the app, without hand-authoring a `SKILL.md` file
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This makes Customize a good starting point if you want to extend the app's capabilities but don't need the full `copilot plugin` CLI workflow described in [Installing and Using Plugins](../installing-and-using-plugins/).

### Agent Merge
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A feature available in both the GitHub Copilot app and VS Code's Agents window (v1.136+, Preview) that automates carrying a pull request to completion. It monitors CI/CD checks, addresses review feedback and failing tests, resolves merge conflicts, reruns workflows, and can merge the pull request once everything passes—repeating the cycle until the PR is ready.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Example**: Enabling Agent Merge on a session so that once its PR is opened, Copilot keeps addressing CI failures and reviewer comments without you manually re-prompting it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**When to use**: For routine PR follow-through where you want Copilot to handle the iterative fix-review-merge loop instead of you monitoring it manually.
