When you're working with the GitHub Copilot CLI in a terminal outside VS Code, you can now move the session into VS Code and keep going. Enter /code in the CLI, or /code-insiders for VS Code Insiders. The CLI exits, and VS Code opens the same session in the Chat view of the window for the session's folder, starting VS Code if it isn't running. The session keeps its conversation history, its model and reasoning effort, and its mode and permissions.

When several chats run at once, keeping them all in one Agents window means switching between them and losing sight of the one you are waiting on. With chat windows, you can open a chat in a window of its own, and arrange that window so that the chat, its editors, and its terminals fit the task.

Move parts: Drag a part by the grabber on the top edge of its card to another side of the window, or beside another part. You can also use Move Part Left, Move Part Right, Move Part Up, and Move Part Down.
