Evidra - evidence-based autonomous engineering. Evidence-linked status, safe goal planning, and compliance export from VS Code (powered by the Evidra engine).
Installation
Launch VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), paste the following command, and press enter.
Trust-layer companion for VS Code: evidence-backed status, safe goal
planning, compliance export, and agent-security patch scans — all through
the Evidra CLI. The extension never patches source files itself.

Honest verification status
The VS Code API adapter (src/extension.ts) is not verified here:
no vsce packaging and no VS Code instance was driven in this
environment.
The logic layer (src/core.ts, which contains the real behavior) is
verified: node src/core.ts --selftest exercises the argument
builders and output summarizer, and the same CLI commands have been
proven end-to-end elsewhere (evidra status/scan/compliance CLI
checks, composite CI action, mcp-serve).
