Ulugbek Abdullaev 3073c2bb48 NES: experiment-driven global token budget for the inline-edits prompt (#323948)
* nes: fold currentFile budgeting into the global budget cascade

Under the opt-in global budget experiment, the current file now draws its
clip budget from the shared pool (its `shares.currentFile` slice of
`totalTokens`) and donates whatever it does not use to the cascade as the
initial surplus. When the global budget is disabled (prod default) behavior
is byte-identical, and the new defaults (totalTokens 8000, shares in eighths)
reproduce today's per-part `maxTokens` caps exactly.

- xtabPromptOptions: add `GlobalBudgetSharePart`, `currentFileBudget()` and
  `validate()`; grow `shares` to include `currentFile`; bump
  `DEFAULT_TOTAL_TOKENS` to 8000 and rebalance `DEFAULT_SHARES`.
- promptCrafting: seed the cascade's initial surplus from the current file's
  leftover budget; delegate validation to the namespace helper.
- xtabProvider: size and clip the current file from the pool and compute the
  surplus, gated on `globalBudget` being defined.
- Tests: volume-neutral invariant, `currentFileBudget`/`validate` units, and
  provider-level regression + new-behavior coverage.
- Docs: rewrite globalBudgetCascade.md for the seeded-surplus design.

* nes: collapse global-budget settings into a single exp-driven JSON string

Replace the two experiment-driven global-budget settings
(globalBudget.enabled boolean + globalBudget.totalTokens number) with a
single JSON-encoded string setting, modelled after modelConfigurationString,
that defines totalTokens, order, and shares together.

- configurationService: remove InlineEditsXtabGlobalBudgetEnabled and
  InlineEditsXtabGlobalBudgetTotalTokens; add InlineEditsXtabGlobalBudget
  (string | undefined, ExperimentBased, default undefined).
- xtabPromptOptions: add GlobalBudgetOptions.VALIDATOR (all top-level fields
  optional; shares must be complete when present) and a pure
  GlobalBudgetOptions.fromConfigString(): Result<GlobalBudgetOptions, string>
  that JSON-parses, structurally validates, merges over the defaults, then
  runs the semantic validate(). Never throws.
- xtabProvider: inject ITelemetryService; resolve the budget via
  getGlobalBudget(), returning undefined (disabled, identical to prod) when
  the string is unset/empty/invalid and emitting incorrectNesGlobalBudgetConfig
  telemetry on parse/validation failure.
- Tests: migrate the provider global-budget tests to the JSON string and add
  fromConfigString unit tests.
- Docs: rewrite the globalBudgetCascade.md Wiring section and migration note.

No regression: an unset string keeps the byte-identical legacy path. '{}'
enables the budget with the volume-neutral defaults; {"totalTokens":N} only
overrides the pool size.

* nes: clip the current file last under a global budget to reuse cascade leftover

Under a global budget the current file is now clipped LAST, sized to its base
share plus whatever the budget cascade left unused (`currentFileBudget +
finalSurplus`), so it trims less and reuses leftover budget. The cascade runs
first (seeded with 0, the current file never donates) and is threaded into
`getUserPrompt` via `precomputedCascade` so it renders exactly once.

This replaces the earlier two-mode design: the opt-in `reuseLeftoverForCurrentFile`
flag and the seeded-surplus "donate-forward" path are dropped, along with all
`currentFileBudgetSurplus`/`initialSurplus` threading. Clip-last is now the single
behavior under a global budget. The validator hardening (rejecting non-finite or
negative `totalTokens`/shares) is kept.

No production regression: when `globalBudget` is undefined the current file is
still clipped to its own `currentFile.maxTokens` with the legacy await ordering,
byte-identical to before. The global budget remains experiment-gated and off in
prod.

Tests and globalBudgetCascade.md updated for the clip-last-only behavior.

* nes: address review — restore nLinesOfCurrentFileInPrompt telemetry timing

- xtabProvider: record setNLinesOfCurrentFileInPrompt inside both budget
  branches. In the legacy/prod branch the clip happens before the
  context-gathering awaits, so the telemetry call is moved back there to
  match prod timing exactly (it is still emitted when a request is
  cancelled mid-gathering). The clip-last branch records it after the
  cascade, as the clip is inherently last there.
- xtabPromptOptions: fix two stale JSDoc blocks that still described the
  removed donate-forward behavior; describe clip-last instead.
- globalBudgetCascade.md: correct the conservation bound to T·(Σ shares)
  and document the share-sum tolerance (over-allocation ≤ ~1e-3·T).
- promptCrafting.spec: add a cascade test asserting finalSurplus shrinks
  as the cascade consumes budget (current file reuses less leftover).

* nes: extract current-file clip + context gathering into a method

Pulls the ~55-line global-budget/legacy if-else out of doGetNextEditWithSelection
into a private gatherContextAndClipCurrentFile method returning
Result<{ clippedTaggedCurrentDoc, areaAroundCodeToEdit, precomputedCascade,
langCtx, neighborSnippets }, NoNextEditReason>. Behavior, clip-first/clip-last
ordering, and nLinesOfCurrentFileInPrompt telemetry timing are unchanged.

* nes: recalibrate global-budget defaults to merged currentFile cap (1500)

main (#322382) lowered currentFile.maxTokens 2000->1500, which broke the
global-budget 'volume-neutral defaults' invariant (floor(total*share) must
equal each part's legacy cap). Recalibrate DEFAULT_SHARES to cap/7500 and set
DEFAULT_TOTAL_TOKENS to 7500 (the sum of the merged per-part caps: 1500 + 2000
+ 2000 + 1000 + 1000), so shares still sum to exactly 1 and every part's base
allocation reproduces its cap. finalSurplus stays 6000 (7500 - 1500).

Update dependent specs (literal 8000 -> DEFAULT_TOTAL_TOKENS, stale 2000 cap
comments -> 1500) and the design doc (defaults table, worked examples, effective
caps, ordering caveat, migration note) for T=7500 and currentFile base 1500.

Visual Studio Code - Open Source ("Code - OSS")

Feature Requests Bugs Gitter

The Repository

This repository ("Code - OSS") is where we (Microsoft) develop the Visual Studio Code product together with the community. Not only do we work on code and issues here, but we also publish our roadmap, monthly iteration plans, and our endgame plans. This source code is available to everyone under the standard MIT license.

Visual Studio Code

VS Code in action

Visual Studio Code is a distribution of the Code - OSS repository with Microsoft-specific customizations released under a traditional Microsoft product license.

Visual Studio Code combines the simplicity of a code editor with what developers need for their core edit-build-debug cycle. It provides comprehensive code editing, navigation, and understanding support along with lightweight debugging, a rich extensibility model, and lightweight integration with existing tools.

Visual Studio Code is updated monthly with new features and bug fixes. You can download it for Windows, macOS, and Linux on Visual Studio Code's website. To get the latest releases every day, install the Insiders build.

Contributing

There are many ways in which you can participate in this project, for example:

If you are interested in fixing issues and contributing directly to the code base, please see the document How to Contribute, which covers the following:

Feedback

See our wiki for a description of each of these channels and information on some other available community-driven channels.

Many of the core components and extensions to VS Code live in their own repositories on GitHub. For example, the node debug adapter and the mono debug adapter repositories are separate from each other. For a complete list, please visit the Related Projects page on our wiki.

Bundled Extensions

VS Code includes a set of built-in extensions located in the extensions folder, including grammars and snippets for many languages. Extensions that provide rich language support (inline suggestions, Go to Definition) for a language have the suffix language-features. For example, the json extension provides coloring for JSON and the json-language-features extension provides rich language support for JSON.

Development Container

This repository includes a Visual Studio Code Dev Containers / GitHub Codespaces development container.

  • For Dev Containers, use the Dev Containers: Clone Repository in Container Volume... command which creates a Docker volume for better disk I/O on macOS and Windows.

    • If you already have VS Code and Docker installed, you can also click here to get started. This will cause VS Code to automatically install the Dev Containers extension if needed, clone the source code into a container volume, and spin up a dev container for use.
  • For Codespaces, install the GitHub Codespaces extension in VS Code, and use the Codespaces: Create New Codespace command.

Docker / the Codespace should have at least 4 cores and 6 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended) to run a full build. See the development container README for more information.
