ChatAgentMode Enable agent mode for chat. When this is enabled, agent mode can be activated via the dropdown in the view. ChatMCP Controls access to installed Model Context Protocol servers. No access to MCP servers. Allows access to MCP servers installed from the registry that VS Code is connected to. Allow access to any installed MCP server.

This feature disables critical security protections and makes it much easier for an attacker to compromise the machine.
