Get paid while you code. aicash shows exactly one sponsored text line at
the far right of your status bar — and pays you 70% of the revenue for
every impression it serves (early-stage promo: the split is 70/30 in your
favor).
This extension does one thing, openly: it is the VS Code client of the
aicash wait-time ad network, the same network that runs
in the Claude Code status line and the OpenCode TUI via npm i -g aicash.
How it works
One unobtrusive text ad in the status bar. No popups, no notifications, no
webviews, no slowdown — on any error it silently shows nothing.
Ads are matched from coarse, privacy-safe signals only: the language ids of
your open editors and dependency names from your workspace package.json.
Never file contents, file names, or paths.
Earnings accrue to your machine's aicash account (~/.aicash). If you also
use the aicash CLI, everything lands in one account — run aicash login
once and track payouts at app.aicash.fun.

Privacy
IPs are hashed server-side with a rotating salt; ad requests carry only the
coarse signals described above; impressions are deduplicated per session with
single-use nonces. Full policy: aicash.fun/privacy.
