* sessions: drop the composer card, give each control its own surface Over a chat background the new-session composer sat on a single frosted card, while a started session gives every control its own surface. This makes the composer match the started session. - Delete `.new-chat-widget-content`'s card styling: the padding, blur, border, radius and shadow. - Give the bottom-row action labels and the workspace pills an opaque `--session-view-background` fill, and put a 2px gap between the agent host config controls now that they no longer share one surface. - Keep the hover tint opaque. `--vscode-toolbar-hoverBackground` is translucent, so it goes on `background-image` as a flat gradient and composites over the opaque fill instead of replacing it. - Frame the bottom-row chips when a chat background is set, the same move the in-session secondary toolbar makes in `chatView.css`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Address review: high-contrast chip frame, fixture layering The chip frame over a chat background used commandCenter.inactiveBorder, which — unlike its sibling border tokens — registers no hcDark/hcLight value, so it stayed a 25%-alpha wash in high contrast. Put contrastBorder first, the way the rest of the codebase does: high-contrast themes define it, others fall through. The chat-background fixture painted its opaque base on .session-view, which production makes transparent so the wallpaper can show. Move that base onto the part instead. Both screenshots are byte-identical, since the wallpaper is positioned and always painted above a static background either way — but the fixture now stacks its layers the way the real window does. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Refresh the blocks-ci screenshot manifest Regenerated by CI. Most entries are this PR repainting the composer, and the NewSessionChatBackground pair is the fixture it adds. One entry is not from here: chatInput/ResponsiveModelResizeCycleMinimal/Dark. #334021 landed after the manifest was last regenerated and changed chatView.css without refreshing it, so this PR is the first regeneration to pick that up. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Restore the resize-cycle hash the manifest refresh clobbered ResponsiveModelResizeCycleMinimal/Dark is not a fixture this branch touches, but the regenerated manifest I pasted carried a one-off hash for it. Put back the value main has held across ~20 regenerations, which is also what the latest run produced. That fixture is the only blocksCi one that sets virtualTime.enabled to false, and it drives 19 sequential resize widths on wall-clock time, so its final frame can land mid-settle on a loaded runner.

Visual Studio Code - Open Source ("Code - OSS")
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
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 the Visual Studio Code website. To get the latest releases every day, install the Insiders build.

Related Projects
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.
