Microsoft released Amplifier, an experimental development environment that enhances AI coding assistants with 20+ specialized agents, a knowledge extraction system, parallel worktree workflows, and automatic conversation transcript preservation.

It requires Python 3.11+, UV, Node.js, and works primarily in WSL2, though it's explicitly marked as early-stage research software with no stability guarantees or official support.
