New VS Code Extension - Week One: What We’re Hearing and What We’re Shipping

Kilo Code's VS Code extension hit general availability last week via auto-update, surfacing new bugs and workflow gaps across the full user base. The team outlines five priority areas being addressed this week: smarter rate-limit retry and cancellation, stricter Plan/Ask agent write-operation controls, improved human-in-the-loop diff review and permission flows, startup config validation with actionable error messages, and memory/performance regressions on Windows and large monorepos. Users can downgrade to version 5.x while fixes ship. The extension was rebuilt on a shared OpenCode server engine with the CLI to enable faster iteration across both surfaces simultaneously.
