Changes in v0.63.0-oss.1

No-auth build of Copilot Chat with BYOK support.
See README for setup instructions.

Installation

  1. Download the .vsix file from this release
  2. Open VSCodium
  3. Go to Extensions view (Ctrl+Shift+X)
  4. Click "..." menu → Install from VSIX...
  5. Select the downloaded .vsix file

Important: VSCodium "built-in extension" conflict

Some VSCodium-insiders builds ship a product.json with:

"builtInExtensionsEnabledWithAutoUpdates": ["GitHub.copilot-chat"]

VS Code treats every ID in this list as a built-in, product-shipped extension. The extension scanner applies the rule "this ID is already part of the product → ignore the user-installed copy". Consequence: the VSIX extracts fine into data/extensions, but on every scan the installed copy is silently dropped from the extension list, and both the CLI and the UI fail with:

ScanningExtension: Cannot read the extension from <extension-folder>

Fix: remove "GitHub.copilot-chat" from that list in <VSCodium>\resources\app\product.json:

"builtInExtensionsEnabledWithAutoUpdates": []
