VS Code 1.122 Makes BYOK Easier

This article discusses the VS Code 1.122 release, focusing on the new ability to use Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) models without requiring GitHub authentication. It highlights how this feature supports enterprise, offline, and air-gapped workflows for chat, tools, and MCP integrations. The author relates this to their experiments with local models, GPU setups, and AI-assisted software engineering, emphasizing that while code generation becomes cheaper, validation and engineering discipline remain costly.
