Kingy AI Take
GitHub added enterprise-managed strictKnownMarketplaces support for VS Code and Copilot CLI in a changelog dated June 25, 2026 (github.blog). AI Platform Teams and Enterprises governing developer fleets get a concrete control to limit marketplace exposure across those environments. It is a narrow administrative setting, so teams should validate policy behavior and extension exceptions in a pilot before enforcing it broadly across the organization.
Who it is for
