SKIA for Visual Studio Code

Use SKIA from VS Code: chat, explain a selection, propose a fix, and analyze a file.

Requirements

Open the Command Palette and run SKIA: Sign In, or open the SKIA view in the activity bar.
A browser window opens on this machine. Sign in with your SKIA email and password.
When sign-in finishes, you can close the browser tab. VS Code stores a short-lived session token in Secret Storage.

Run SKIA: Sign Out to remove the stored token from this machine.

Chat in the SKIA side panel
Explain Selection / Fix Selection on highlighted code
Analyze File for the active editor (you must approve before the file is sent)
Inline line completion while signed in

Sign-in uses a browser loopback address on 127.0.0.1 with PKCE. The session token is not placed in the browser URL.
The token is stored only in VS Code Secret Storage. It lasts up to eight hours and is limited to chat and code analysis on SKIA.
Chat sends the message you type. Analyze sends the file path and file contents you approved. Selection commands send the selected text.
The workspace cannot change the SKIA API origin in untrusted workspaces.
