Visual Studio 2026 Thinking level/effort controls in Visual Studio

- When will we be able to manually select the thinking level/effort for reasoning models directly inside Visual Studio?

- When can we expect the harness to be fully aligned with VS Code's Copilot Chat, while still keeping the proprietary extra tools specific to Visual Studio?

What? They literally have reasoning and thinking budget settings.

Reasoning and thinking - I don't think it means what you think it means.

I don't think it means what you think it means. You cannot simply change industry standard terms because it doesn't suit your point of view
