v0.3.153

Features & Improvements

• @azure will now take your Azure related VS Code extensions into consideration when answering your prompts. For example, if you have the Azure Functions extension installed and you ask "How do I create a function app?", @azure is now more inclined to give you an answer which involves the extension.
• @azure will now take ARM resources you have recently interacted with in the Azure Resources view into consideration when answering your prompts. For example, you can select an ARM resource in the view, and then immediately ask @azure a question about the resource without having to explicitly give the details of the resource.
• @azure will now try to better understand the IaC technology your workspace is using before answering prompts about writing IaC or deploying your app.
• The disambiguations which control when VS Code Copilot Chat will route prompts to @azure have been updated to cover more scenarios that @azure supports.
• When first using @azure, the initial tenant picked for use will attempt to default to a tenant which has copilot access enabled.

Fixes

• Fixed improper handling of Azure Resource Graph query exceptions.
