Visual Studio Code 1.122.0 has been released, eliminating the GitHub login requirement for Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) setups, allowing developers to run local language models offline without cloud dependencies. The update introduces device emulation and screenshot sharing in the integrated browser, making it easier for web developers to debug responsive layouts without switching between the editor and a full browser. It also tightens sandbox execution to trigger only during Default Approvals, improving safety and troubleshooting. Additionally, a new guided issue reporting wizard automatically captures screenshots and videos, while support for 32-bit ARM Linux hosts has been discontinued, requiring users on older hardware to stick with previous versions
Visual Studio Code 1.122.0 released
Visual Studio Code 1.122 finally drops the GitHub login requirement for Bring Your Own Key setups, letting developers run local language models completely offline without forced cloud handshakes. The built-in browser now ships with device emulation and screenshot sharing, which cuts down on context switching when debugging responsive layouts or mobile touch interactions. Sandbox execution got tightened to only trigger during Default Approvals, fixing that annoying automatic retry behavior that used to defeat the whole safety net. A guided issue reporting wizard now captures screenshots and video clips automatically, though teams running 32-bit ARM Linux hosts will need to stick with older builds since support just ended.
