VSCode Extension 0.901.1 Release Notes

New Features

  • Chat submit is now a rebindable VS Code keyboard shortcut. "Submit Chat Message" (Enter) and "Submit Chat Message Immediately" (Ctrl+Enter / Cmd+Enter) appear in Keyboard Shortcuts and can be remapped.

Improvements

  • Workspace-defined Augment hooks now run only in trusted workspaces. Command hooks supplied by a workspace stay disabled until you grant workspace trust, and are armed as soon as trust is granted.
  • The agent now asks for approval before viewing sensitive files — .env files, private keys and certificates, credential- and secret-named files, and paths excluded by .augmentignore.
  • Skills in .augment that fail to parse are now listed in Settings with the reason they were rejected, instead of disappearing silently.
  • MCP Tool Search in Settings now distinguishes a failure to save your changes from a failure to load the current configuration.
  • Remote MCP servers (HTTP and SSE) now honor the HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables.

Reliability & Performance

  • Chat responses now recover from mid-stream interruptions automatically. Recovery is suppressed after a tool call has already completed, so tools are never re-executed by a retry.
  • A stream that ends abnormally now reports a neutral, retriable "response was interrupted" message instead of guessing that your network connection failed.
  • Recovered chat turns settle into a finished state. Tools that were running when a conversation was interrupted no longer appear to run forever after it is restored.
  • The conversation you are working in is preserved when the extension host restarts or reactivates.
  • Remote tool integrations no longer disappear when sign-in finishes while the extension is still starting up.

Bug Fixes

  • Responses cut short by the model's output limit are no longer reported as complete. Chat now shows an explicit truncation failure.
  • Markdown that fails to parse now renders an inline fallback message instead of leaving the response blank.
  • Agent checkpoints in deeply nested workspaces no longer fail to restore because of over-long checkpoint filenames.
  • Files that Git recreates during a checkout are no longer deleted again by the agent's checkpoint file watcher.
