### How do checkpoints work in the new extension?
|
||||
|
||||
Checkpoints are available in the new extension. You can use them to save and restore your workspace state during a task. See the [Checkpoints documentation](/docs/code-with-ai/features/checkpoints) for details on how to use them.
|
||||
Checkpoints are now called **snapshots** in the new extension. They use git-based snapshots of your working directory, taken before and after agent edits. You can revert any message's changes directly from the chat, and a revert banner appears when you're viewing an earlier state. See the [Checkpoints documentation](/docs/code-with-ai/features/checkpoints) for details.

### Where is the auto-confirm commands settings UI?
|
||||
### Where is the auto-approve settings UI?
|
||||
|
||||
The auto-confirm commands settings have moved to the new settings panel. The UI has changed, but the functionality is the same. Open the settings panel to configure which commands are auto-approved. See [Auto-Approving Actions](/docs/getting-started/settings/auto-approving-actions) for more information.
|
||||
The old auto-confirm commands UI has been replaced by a granular per-tool permission system. Open **Settings → Auto Approve** to configure each tool (bash, read, edit, glob, grep, etc.) with **Allow**, **Ask**, or **Deny**. There is no longer a separate command allowlist — shell execution is controlled by the `bash` tool permission. See [Auto-Approving Actions](/docs/getting-started/settings/auto-approving-actions) for more information.

### Where did the file reading settings go?
|
||||
|
||||
File reading settings are available in the new settings panel. Open settings to configure file reading behavior.
|
||||
File reading is now controlled by the `read` tool permission in **Settings → Auto Approve**. By default, file reading is allowed, but `.env` files will prompt for approval. You can adjust this behavior per tool in the Auto Approve tab.

### Where is the UI for configuring local LLM providers?
|
||||
|
||||
Local LLM providers can be configured through the new settings panel. See the [Local Models](/docs/automate/extending/local-models) documentation for setup instructions.
|
||||
Local LLM providers like Ollama and LM Studio can be configured through **Settings → Providers**. The extension and CLI share the same config, so changes in either place are reflected in both. See the [Local Models](/docs/automate/extending/local-models) documentation for setup instructions.

### Where is the diff view for file changes?
|
||||
|
||||
The diff view is still available when reviewing file changes. When the agent proposes changes to a file, you can review the diff before approving.
|
||||
Each message that caused file changes shows a **diff badge** in the chat — click it to open the Diff Viewer and review what changed. The Agent Manager also includes a built-in diff reviewer that shows every change file by file, in unified or split view.

|

### How do I do code reviews in the new extension?
|
||||
|
||||
Code reviews follow the CLI workflow in the new extension. See the [CLI documentation](/docs/code-with-ai/platforms/cli) for current instructions. Documentation specific to code reviews in the VS Code extension is being updated.
|
||||
The Agent Manager includes inline code review — you can leave **line-level review comments directly on the diff**, the same way you would on a pull request. Click a line, type your feedback, and hit "Send all to chat" to send every comment with its file path and line number as structured context to the agent. See the [Agent Manager](/docs/automate/agent-manager) documentation for details.

### Settings include Linux commands that don't exist on Windows
|
||||
### I had custom command allowlists — where did they go?
|
||||
|
||||
This is a known issue. The default command allowlist currently shows bash/Linux commands regardless of your platform. A fix is being worked on to make the default commands platform-dependent. In the meantime, you can manually edit the command allowlist in your settings to match your operating system.
|
||||
The new extension no longer uses a command allowlist. Instead, shell execution is controlled by the `bash` tool permission in **Settings → Auto Approve**. You can set it to Allow, Ask, or Deny. When set to Ask, you approve or deny each individual command invocation at runtime.
