To help you better prepare for complex coding tasks, we are introducing a built-in plan agent in VS Code. Instead of immediately having the agent implement a feature and potentially missing important requirements, the plan agent helps you analyze the task, break it down into steps, and generate a concise implementation plan.

To help you better prepare for complex coding tasks, VS Code now includes a built-in plan agent. The plan agent helps you analyze tasks, break them down into steps, and generate implementation plans before starting development. This approach helps avoid missing important requirements.

To use the plan agent, open the Chat view (`kb(workbench.action.chat.open)`), select **Plan** from the agents dropdown, and describe your task.
