Breaking Changes

Issue #1

Renamed the 'agents' module to 'test agents', changing import paths; update any `import agents` statements to `import test_agents` or the new module name.

Migration Steps

  1. 1
    Update import statements from `agents` to `test_agents` to reflect the renamed module.
  2. 2
    If your extension relied on the removed `workspaceFolder` reference, adjust the VS Code mcp configuration accordingly.

Release Summary

This release introduces a local-network-access permission for Chromium, renames the agents module to test agents (a breaking change), adds a cwd fallback for test config, and fixes a VS Code mcp workspaceFolder reference.
