Lumit VS Code Extension

Lumit is now a full VS Code extension experience with:

• Activity Bar container (Lumit)
• Sidebar panel (Assistant) with prompt UI
• Local bridge server for the desktop app (127.0.0.1:<port>)
• Command palette actions
• Status bar integration

What It Provides

1) Sidebar Assistant UI

• Open Lumit from the Activity Bar.
• Enter Prompt, optional System, optional Model family.
• Run prompt and view response directly in the sidebar.

2) Bridge API for Desktop Lumit

• GET /health
• GET /status
• POST /complete

Default port is 8767 (configurable).

3) Commands

• Lumit: Open Sidebar
• Lumit: Show Bridge Status
• Lumit: Restart Bridge Server
• Lumit: Run Prompt

4) Status Bar

• Shows Lumit quick entry (can be disabled in settings).

Settings

• lumit.bridgePort (number, default 8767)
• lumit.defaultModelFamily (string, optional)
• lumit.bridgeToken (string, optional but recommended)
• lumit.autoStartBridge (boolean, default true)
• lumit.showStatusBar (boolean, default true)

If lumit.bridgeToken is set, Lumit desktop must use the same token in .env:

Publishing to Marketplace

This repo does not auto-publish. To appear in VS Code Extensions search, you must publish with your own publisher + PAT:

1. Create publisher (Azure DevOps / Marketplace).
2. Ensure publisher and repository.url in package.json match your real account/repo.
3. vsce login <publisher>
4. vsce publish

Until then, it works as a local or VSIX-installed extension only.
