Agentic Chat fails in VS Code Workflow v6.47.0 on Gitlab 18.4.1 due to missing aiCatalogConfiguredItems (rename mismatch)
Summary
VS Code GitLab Workflow extension v6.47.0 fails to load Duo Agentic Chat against a GitLab EE 18.4.1 instance due to a GraphQL schema rename mismatch.
The extension queries the renamed field aiCatalogConfiguredItems, but 18.4.1 exposes the older aiCatalogItems. As a result, the Agentic Chat panel shows an error and cannot list configured agents.
Steps to reproduce
- On GitLab EE 18.4.1 instance
- Use VS Code 1.104.2 with GitLab Workflow v6.47.0.
- Open a project/MR and launch Duo Agentic Chat from the GitLab panel/command palette.
- Observe that the Agentic Chat panel shows a schema error and does not populate available agents.
Example Project
Reproducible on any 18.4.1 instance with a configured Duo Agent.An example internal issue here
What is the current bug behavior?
Agentic Chat panel displays a GraphQL schema error:
Error: Field 'aiCatalogConfiguredItems' doesn't exist on type 'Query' (Did you mean aiCatalogItems?)
Variable $projectId is declared by getConfiguredAgents but not used
Variable $groupId is declared by getConfiguredAgents but not used
What is the expected correct behavior?
- The extension should be backward compatible with older server schemas (e.g., 18.4.1).
- If aiCatalogConfiguredItems (or the “item consumers” query) is absent, the extension should fallback to querying aiCatalogItems (with itemType: AGENT) and proceed without surfacing an error to the user.
Relevant logs and/or screenshots
VS Code GitLab Workflow output / DevTools console shows:
GraphQL request "getConfiguredAgents" failed:
Field 'aiCatalogConfiguredItems' doesn't exist on type 'Query' (Did you mean aiCatalogItems?)
