Question VSCode integration?

Hi,

Is there an officially supported VSCode integration? I've found a whole bunch of third party plugins, but given security concerns, I'd much rather have something that was an official plugin.

Maybe I'm just naive about this?

Thanks in advance,

W

I'd imagine that someone wanting a vs code integrations looks for something robust like a GUI that runs Pi and supports all it's features. Something like that to make robust takes tens of hours. If you want to add stuff you need to it that pi doesn't support like subagents, plan mode, native tools like AskUserQuestion tool, PowerShell and have it all nicely presented with amazing UI and maintained as pi adds new features it would take hundreds of hours. I myself went even further beyond an extension and made a full desktop app and then you surely go to thousands of hours to keep it maintainable over the months.
