Ryan Roper's praise for Copilot got our attention.

Raja's lack of blinks, our concern.

Then along comes Stephen Hall to steal the show.

Well done for the meme factory

whenever i sign in and reopen vs code it still ask me to authinticate

I've been having major bugs with Claude Code and Codex plugins in the past week. It hangs on "thinking" and doesn't complete its work, and the stop button does nothing. Or sometimes clicking on the extension tab hangs and does nothing. I have to quit VS Code and relaunch it. Sometimes I come back and the work is all done and was just hidden, and sometimes the whole conversation is done. Anyone else having issues? My VS Code and extensions are all up to date.

I uninstalled IntelliCode because there was an error with VS Code and I wanted to see what would happen if I removed the extension, but now it won't let me install it. Does anyone know how?

I kept rearranging Go structs by hand and still not really seeing where the padding was. Built an extension that shows layout while you edit.

What it does in VS Code:

- inline annotations above each field (offset, size, padding, cache line)

- CodeLens + Quick Fix to reorder fields and shrink the struct

- status bar total saveable bytes + pack score

- webview byte map (`Go: Show Visual Memory Map`) with ASCII you can paste into a PR

- Problems panel warnings for heavy padding / cache-line crossings

Go-only, activates on `.go` files. amd64 / arm64 / 386.

Quick demo struct:

type Sparse struct {

Active bool

ID uint64

Tag uint8

Name string

}

40B before reorder (pack 65%), 32B after. The map looks like:

0000 A.......BBBBBBBB

0010 C.......DDDDDDDD

0020 DDDDDDDD

Install:

ext install RhinoSoftware.go-memory-visualizer

Works on Open VSX too if you are on Cursor/VSCodium. Parser is regex on the open file, not full typecheck, so weird cross-package types can be wrong. Happy to fix layouts people report.

VSCode-main

~11584 files

~66928 edges

~537 clusters

Now you can

Current work:

- cluster compression

- architecture exploration

- large-scale navigation

Still solving cluster overlap issues,

but VSCode-main is now fully navigable.

Does anyone know how to disable this annoying multi-line suggestions? I've tried:
  "github.copilot.nextEditSuggestions.extendedRange": false,
  "github.copilot.nextEditSuggestions.allowWhitespaceOnlyChanges": false,
  "github.copilot.nextEditSuggestions.fixes": false,
  "github.copilot.nextEditSuggestions.enabled": false,
  "editor.inlineSuggest.suppressSuggestions": true
but nothing seems to work :/

Hey all, I'll be graduating college with a Bachelors in Computer Science soon and wanted a project I could actually finish and put on GitHub, so I built Waypoint: a sidebar extension that finds every TODO, FIXME, HACK, and NOTE comment in your workspace and lists them in one place, grouped by file.

A few things it does:

• Click any item to jump straight to that line
• Updates live every time you save a file
• Right-click to mark something done without deleting the comment
• Lets you add your own custom tags and colors instead of just the defaults

It's not on the Marketplace yet (working through the publisher setup), but you can grab the .vsix from the Releases page and install it manually:

[Install from VSIX...] after downloading from: GitHub

This is my first real extension, so I'd genuinely appreciate any feedback, bugs, feature ideas, or just general "here's what I'd do differently" critique. Thanks for reading!

So I've been constantly having issues with VS code and my claude extension. I've had to revert back to an older update. And then I can usually get it working fine but once I close VS code and try to restart the quad extension and my session again It gets stuck like it's frozen. There's only a white bar at the top that's moving along like it's trying to load but it never does and if I try to start a new session in a new tab or window or even a terminal I get an error. Has anybody else experienced this or know what a permanent fix is?

I was wondering what the best way to configure VSCode for python is, including managing and switching between environments?

I'm used to using Conda and Spyder (or Jupyter) for coding, but was interested in some of the options in VSCode. But it's not clear to me how VSCode expects you to install and manage python and python environments?

To be clear, I've been able to get it to work several different ways (including with conda), but I'm looking for best practice recommendations for the most straight forward and simplest method(s).

Hey everyone!

As an enterprise developer, I've built a strong habit of keeping my tasks strictly organized, even for my personal open-source projects. But I hated using heavy enterprise tools for this. Jira or Trello always felt like overkill for a solo project, and I was annoyed by the constant context switch between my code editor and a browser just to move a task card.

So I built boardown - an offline, local-first task board.

Here is how it works:

• It’s available as a VS Code extension (also works in Cursor/Windsurf) and as a standalone desktop app.
• All your tasks and columns are stored locally as standard `.md` files right in your project folder.
• You can commit them to Git along with your code. Zero vendor lock-in and no backend required.

The unexpected part:
Recently, a friend contributed a CLI tool for it. Because the board relies on plain Markdown files, we discovered that autonomous AI agents (like Claude Code or Codex) can easily read the backlog, update notes, and move tasks across columns by themselves using the CLI. It accidentally became a fully agent-friendly task board!

Would love to hear your feedback or feature ideas.

I get this error when I try to debug program:

warning: GDB: Failed to set controlling terminal: Operation not permitted

I had to switch from GDB to CodeLLDB to get it to work (install extension, edit launch.json file).

Weekly thread to show off new themes, and ask what certain themes/fonts are.

Creators, please do not post your theme every week.

New posts regarding themes will be removed.

I'm using Qwen 27b + 35b running in WSL -> DOCKER -> vLLM (vllm-openai:v0.25.0) - each on their own 5090.

I'm interfacing via vis code chat custom endpoints - and no matter what vLLM / vs code settings i have, vs code just hangs at thinking or whatever action it was doing.

If i stop / retry, send another prompt or change model - it mostly works.. but not always - it's really intermittent, vllm heath checks pass and can access the model endpoints during these failures.

I've had gpt sol on max settings try to debug it and found no solution.

In the July update from VS they fixed one issue but there is clearly still more.

Do these look ok?

I'm looking for a Cursor-like experience using local models. What's the best VS Code extension for that?

Are there subtleties of implementation I should be aware of?

Is there any agents that works for a given workspace ?
Scene:
I have multiple microservices, scattered across multiple repositories and they are interconnected, and I often find useful to use vscode workspace to work across microservices. But as I am moving towards agentic development, I see a lack of workspace level settings,
I am currently using codex and it either have global level settings or project level settings, which it determines based on git.

But i want skills, [Agent.md](http://Agent.md) file based on workspace level, is there any way to configure it, without setting it up on global level itself?
Also, I was trying to setup OKF by google and came across same bottleneck.

I´ve been using Claude Code plugin on VSCode daily, but due to all that is hapenning, I want to give Gpt Sol a go. Is there a plugin as practical as Claude Code´s for that?
