🚀 Visual Studio’s March Update quietly dropped a developer superpower: build your own GitHub Copilot agents. You can now define .agent.md files right in your repo and spin up agents that actually understand your codebase — full workspace awareness, tool‑calling, your preferred model, and even MCP connections to internal knowledge sources. Skills get first‑class treatment too: reusable instruction sets auto‑load from .github/skills/ or your profile, so your agents inherit team‑specific behaviors without rewriting logic. And the tooling upgrades are wild: • find_symbol gives agents real language‑aware navigation (C#, C++, Razor, TS) — no more text‑pattern guessing • Profile Tests with Copilot directly from Test Explorer • Live perf tips while debugging, powered by runtime profiling • Fix NuGet vulnerabilities straight from Solution Explorer • HTML rich copy for clean, syntax‑highlighted pastes into docs or work items Full post: https://is.gd/0XwWBh
