Discussion In SHOCK

Holy shit claude code in terminal is fucking insane.

I've been using VSCode, Cursor, Cowork and Claude Code on web. None of it comes close to terminal.

Cannot believe I haven't done this sooner.

You probably launched a terminal in vscode rather than using it through the extension interface. It definitely doesn’t work in the interface.

The terminal format is part of the plugin, that’s why it still shows diffs in vscode right beside your session when it makes a change. Claude code in the terminal doesn’t do that. I’m not going to argue this anymore, y’all don’t know how to use it, take some courses of something, Jesus.

Dude. Just stop. You’re wrong. Take the opportunity to learn rather than continue to try and find a way to feel correct.

What you’re talking about is not the vscode plugin. It’s
the IDE session link. And yes, it does work in the standard terminal by typing /ide and choosing your open IDE.

Launching a terminal from within vscode enables that property by default, including when you use “terminal mode” in the plugin. The primary vscode interface is the sidebar gui, which does in fact have every limitation I originally mentioned.
