**Why it matters**: Exclude sensitive files, generated code, or dependencies from Copilot's context to improve suggestion relevance and protect confidential information.
### Agent Host (VS Code 1.129+)
The **agent host** runs Copilot, Claude, and Codex agent sessions in a dedicated long-lived process, aligning VS Code's agentic behavior with Copilot CLI and the Copilot SDK. It unlocks session-management tools that let agents list, read, and message sibling sessions, as well as GitHub Enterprise support for Copilot agents.
```json
{
"chat.agentHost.enabled": true
}
```
**Why it matters**: Enables a richer orchestration model inside VS Code where agents can coordinate across sessions. See [Agents and Subagents](../agents-and-subagents/) for details on the session-management tools this unlocks.
### Running Terminal Commands from Chat (VS Code 1.129+)
Use the `!` prefix in the VS Code chat input to run a terminal command directly without leaving the chat:
```
! npm test
! git status
```
**Why it matters**: Quickly inspect output (test results, lint errors, git state) mid-conversation without switching to a terminal panel.
