1EH AI Marketplace — VS Code Extension

A VS Code extension that lets you browse and install Copilot plugins from the 1EH AI Marketplace without memorizing CLI commands. It is a thin UI wrapper around the Copilot CLI — every install, update, uninstall, register, unregister, and sync is executed by copilot plugin ... under the hood, and every state-changing action asks for confirmation first.

Requirements

Copilot CLI on your PATH (or set enterprisePlugins.copilotCliPath).
VS Code 1.85.0 or newer.
Access to the marketplace repository. If you don't have access yet, the view offers two actions: Request reader access (if you only consume plugins) and Request contributor access (if you intend to host your own assets).
Signed in to the marketplace host (msft.ghe.com) via the GitHub CLI. If you aren't, the view walks you through gh auth login.

Features

Register / unregister the marketplace from the view title bar. Unregister detects installed plugins and, on confirmation, removes them along with the marketplace (copilot plugin marketplace remove --force).
Browse available plugins in a dedicated sidebar view, split into Available and Installed sections, with search.
Install / update / uninstall plugins from inline actions, each behind a confirmation prompt. Long-running operations show cancellable progress.
Update all available plugin updates in one action, with a per-plugin success/failure summary and a Retry Failed option.
Sync catalog re-fetches the plugin list from the marketplace source.
Guided recovery for common setup gaps: if the Copilot CLI is missing, or you aren't signed in to the marketplace host, the view shows the exact steps (and a one-click Sign in in terminal) instead of a raw error.
Plugin details panel with description and — when the marketplace is a local checkout — version, category, keywords, author, skills, agents, and a link to the plugin README.
Create AI Asset form for scaffolding either an existing plugin package or a standalone skill, including marketplace registration, trust-card generation, and author-kit validation. Changes remain uncommitted for review.

CLI invocations and their output are written to the 1EH AI Marketplace output channel (Open Output Log in the view menu).

Web handoff

The marketplace website opens the extension with this VS Code URI:

vscode://OneEnterpriseHub.enterprise-ai-marketplace/publish?assetType=plugin&source=marketplace-web

Opening the URI activates the extension, reveals the 1EH AI Marketplace view, and opens the authoring panel with the requested type selected. assetType accepts plugin or skill; unknown values are rejected before the authoring flow opens. If the extension is not installed, VS Code looks up OneEnterpriseHub.enterprise-ai-marketplace in its configured extension gallery, offers to install and enable it, and then retries the URI. Some extension installations require a VS Code window reload before the URI can be opened.

Settings

All settings are machine-scoped (they cannot be overridden by a workspace).

Setting	Default	Description
`enterprisePlugins.marketplaceUrl`	`https://msft.ghe.com/1eh-msd/enterprise-ai-marketplace.git`	Source used when registering the marketplace.
`enterprisePlugins.marketplaceName`	`enterprise-plugins`	Registered marketplace name (as shown by `copilot plugin marketplace list`).
`enterprisePlugins.copilotCliPath`	`copilot`	Path to the Copilot CLI executable.
`enterprisePlugins.accessRequestUrl`	MyAccess contributor access package URL	Opened by Request contributor access; must use https.
`enterprisePlugins.readerAccessRequestUrl`	MyAccess reader access package URL	Opened by Request reader access; must use https.

How it maps to the CLI

Action	Command run
Register Marketplace	`copilot plugin marketplace add <marketplaceUrl>`
Unregister Marketplace	`copilot plugin marketplace remove <marketplaceName> [--force]`
Sync Catalog	`copilot plugin marketplace update <marketplaceName>`
Catalog (Available)	`copilot plugin marketplace browse <marketplaceName>`
Installed state	`copilot plugins list --json`
Install	`copilot plugin install <name>@<marketplaceName>`
Update	`copilot plugin update <name>@<marketplaceName>`
Uninstall	`copilot plugin uninstall <name>@<marketplaceName>`

Privacy

No telemetry, no stored credentials. The Copilot CLI handles authentication; the extension only reads its output. Inputs are validated and commands run without a shell.
