VS Code 1.126 Adds Workspace Trust for Untrusted Folders as Weekly Releases Continue

2 articles · Updated · InfoWorld · Jun 29

Version 1.126 opens newly added folders in Restricted Mode by default, letting developers inspect unfamiliar code before allowing any automatic execution.
Workspace Trust replaces the earlier prompt-first flow, which asked users to trust a folder before they could even view its contents.
VS Code 1.126 also shows total chat-session cost instead of per-turn costs and lets one agent host session run multiple side-by-side chats in the same workspace.
Microsoft published the release on June 24 as part of the editor's weekly update cadence that began in March, extending a recent run of AI- and agent-focused updates.
