Microsoft introduces agent technology to Visual Studio, featuring curated assistants and personalized agent creation tools.

Visual Studio Code 1.110 (February 2026) adds new agent extensibility, browser-driving chat tools, and expanded chat accessibility.

OpenAI today released the Codex app for Windows, powered by OpenAI’s frontier coding models, and it’s now the only coding agent with a first-class Windows experience.

It’s the first time the developer conference has been held this late in the year in over 10 years.
