Interactive Prompt Engineering Sandbox With Model Comparison

via “interactive model playground with multi-modal input”

Build AI agents and workflows in Microsoft Foundry, experiment with open or proprietary models.

Unique: Embeds a full-featured chat playground directly in VS Code sidebar with streaming response visualization and parameter controls, avoiding the need to switch to web-based model playgrounds (OpenAI Playground, Claude Console) or separate tools

Keeps prompt iteration in the development environment with instant feedback and parameter tuning, reducing context-switching compared to web-based playgrounds or API-only workflows
