 Instead of only having one synchronous agent in VS Code, you can now have multiple agents running at once working on your behalf. This is _actually_ being a 10x developer. It's officially a thing. You get to hand off any work you need done to a squad of AI teammates.

 ### Track your agent’s progress
 
 There’s a new **Copilot on My Behalf** query in the Pull Requests view. This shows you everything Copilot is working on for you. Want to see exactly what the agent did? Click "View Session" and watch the play-by-play. You get full transparency into every command and decision. You can also terminate the agent if you're not happy with how things are going. And you can drive all of this without even leaving the editor.

-We find ourselves wanting to do more and more right from the [chat panel](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/chat/copilot-chat) in VS Code. This is where most work and thinking happens and you're not locked into the issue workflow. You can - at any point in a chat, no matter how long - delegate the task directly to the Coding Agent. All of the context that is currently a part of that chat will get sent to the Coding Agent.
+We find ourselves wanting to do more and more right from the [chat panel](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/chat/copilot-chat) in VS Code. While we love working in GitHub, many of us find that VS Code is our home base. Bringing Coding Agent into chat means you're not locked into the issue workflow. Now, you can - at any point in a chat, no matter how long - delegate the task you're working on directly to the Coding Agent. All of the context that's part of your current chat session will be handed off to the Coding Agent.
 
 The Coding Agent then opens a PR and goes directly to work - skipping the issue step entirely. It distills down the context into a detailed PR description and you'll see that Copilot Coding Agent makes use of "to-do lists" so that you can see what it's doing and where it is in the process at a glance.
