VS Code 1.111: Autopilot Mode + Agent-Scoped Hooks Ship in Weekly Stable

VS Code Docs·high signal

VS Code 1.111 introduces Autopilot mode — all tool calls auto-approved, errors auto-retried, agent questions auto-answered so the agent never stalls mid-task. Agent-Scoped Hooks (Preview) attach pre/post processing logic to a single agent session without affecting other chat interactions. This ships in the new weekly stable cadence, replacing VS Code's monthly release cycle as of March 9.
