Vscode Bridge For Claude Code
Vscode Bridge For Claude Code is a VS Code extension and Claude Code plugin connects the editor window and its tools directly to Claude Code.
This product combines a VS Code extension and a Claude Code plugin to bridge the gap between the editor and the AI assistant. Claude gains access to editor tools via an MCP server, allowing it to check type errors, rename symbols, execute commands, and search codebases. It reads, screenshots, and interacts with shared browser pages directly from the integrated browser. Users can send text selections from the Markdown Editor and active images in front of the editor directly into prompts. Chat links generated in Claude Code open in the designated file type editor instead of the default text editor. It requires VS Code, Node, and Claude Code to function.
