About this plugin

DSH's pwsh sandbox blocks executables outside the workspace, so asking the model to run code xxx to open the editor is unreliable at best. dsh-vscode registers as a host plugin that spawns Code.exe directly (stdio: ignore + detached), sidestepping the sandbox entirely and making editor integration deterministic.

Core capabilities include opening a file or folder (relative paths resolved against the current session workspace), jumping to a precise line and column via --goto file:line:col, launching a two-file diff view with --diff, and optionally waiting for the window to close before returning (wait: true); the default is immediate return. Auto-detection follows the order: local install, Program Files, Program Files (x86), and code.cmd on PATH.

Best suited for developers who want DSH to reliably invoke their local Visual Studio Code, especially in sandboxed environments where direct shell calls to external binaries fall short.

Use Cases

  • Open workspace files directly in VS Code during a DSH session
  • Jump to a specific line and column for precise inspection
  • View side-by-side diffs of two files

Best For

  • Developers who need DSH to reliably launch local VS Code
  • Users constrained by pwsh sandbox limits
  • Efficiency-focused developers who want seamless editor access
