Persian Vazirmatn font and RTL support for the Anthropic Claude Code extension in VS Code.
What it does
Applies Vazirmatn font to the Claude Code webview UI
Switches the UI to right-to-left layout
Keeps code blocks, terminal output, Monaco editor and icons in left-to-right
How it works
Claude Code's webview uses a strict Content Security Policy: inline scripts and inline styles are blocked. This extension patches Claude's webview/index.css by appending a managed CSS block (wrapped in /* claude-vazirmatn-font:start */ ... /* claude-vazirmatn-font:end */ sentinels) and ships the Vazirmatn font next to it so the webview origin can load it.
The managed block is re-applied automatically whenever Claude Code is updated, and is cleanly removed when you uninstall this extension.

Known limitations
RTL CSS is tuned against Claude Code 2.1.x webview structure. Future Claude releases may introduce new class names or layout primitives that need additional CSS rules.
The patcher writes to a file inside Claude Code's extension folder. VS Code will flag Claude Code as "tampered" on the next update until Claude is re-patched (this extension handles the re-patch automatically on startup).
