TLDR: Kilo Code has completely rebuilt its VS Code extension on the same portable core as the Kilo CLI, bringing parallel agent execution, worktree isolation, inline code review, and cross-platform session continuity to your editor. This is not an incremental update — it is a ground-up rearchitecture that changes what AI-assisted development actually feels like day to day.
Kilo Code for VS Code — Rebuilt on the Portable Core
TLDR: KiloClaw for Organizations is Kilo's answer to the "shadow AI" problem — developers are already running personal agents inside company infrastructure, and this product gives security teams audit logs, credential lifecycle management, and admin controls to make that usage governable rather than invisible.
TLDR: Pull request 7888 marks the orchestrator agent as deprecated across the entire Kilo Code UI — mode switcher, agent settings, and TUI — using yellow warning badges and localized labels in 18 languages, while keeping the agent functional for users who have not yet migrated.

TLDR: Pull request 7887 fixes a long-standing issue where pressing Enter to confirm a Chinese, Japanese, or Korean IME candidate word would accidentally send the chat message instead of completing the word selection.
PR #7887 — Prevent Enter from sending during IME composition
TLDR: Pull request 7735 fixes a bug where the "Reset All Settings" button left behind persistent globalState items — including variant selections, recently used models, and dismissed notification IDs — making it appear as though the reset had not fully worked.
PR #7735 — Reset All Settings now clears globalState items
TLDR: Pull request 7720 rewrites the banner text shown for built-in agent modes, replacing the misleading "read-only definition" label with a clearer explanation that the base definition is fixed but override fields like model, temperature, and prompt are intentionally editable.

TLDR: Pull request 7627 adds an "Open Locally" action for sessions that are not assigned to a specific worktree, fixing a session management bug where clicking a recent session would destroy the loaded session on the next click.
PR #7627 — Open locally action for unassigned sessions
TLDR: Pull request 7562 fixes a Windows-specific bug where migrating stored paths from the old .kilocode directory to .kilo would corrupt paths by mixing Unix and Windows path separators.
