vscode text editor settings - manually configure language list

I would like to auto-close brackets for .csv files when they are open in vscode. Given the following user settings...

{
    "editor.autoSurround": "languageDefined"
    ...
    "editor.autoClosingQuotes": "languageDefined"
}

... is there a user configuration where I can add or remove language modes to apply the autoClosingQuotes setting(s) to without enabling it for all language modes?

What you want are called "language-specific settings". See using language-specific settings in vscode and documentation for same.

In your case:

"editor.autoClosingBrackets": "never",

"[plaintext]": {
  "editor.autoClosingQuotes": "languageDefined"
}

You can play with those settings to achieve what you want. First I set all languages to never, and then enable it only for plaintext.

Why did I use [plaintext] above? Because in looking through the choices (Ctrl-Shift-P and search for "configure language-specific settings" there isn't a .csv choice. I assume plain text is as close as you are going to get.
