SonarQube for IDE: VS Code 4.24 - Integration with GitHub Copilot agent mode

Dear VS Code community,

SonarQube for IDE: VS Code 4.24 is now available!

In this version, we make it easier for GitHub Copilot users to use SonarQube for IDE with the agent mode to elevate the AI coding experience and simplify the use of our extension.

Ask the agent about potential security flaws in your code, and it will pick up the reported Security Hotspots detected in Connected Mode.

You can also ask the agent to help you set up connected mode.

Finally, exclude files from the SonarQube for IDE analysis with just one agent prompt.

Learn more about the integration of SonarQube for VSCode and GitHub Copilot in our documentation.

Finally, this version includes analyzers’ updates; most importantly for Sonar Java analyzer. Learn more about the analysis of Java 23 and new rules introduced for Java 22 here and the Java/Python bug detection engine 2.0 here.

You can find the full SonarQube for IDE: VSCode release notes here.

Thank you for your continued support!
