A small utility extension that links the Codrel backend with VS Code and Kiro IDE.
It installs and registers the Codrel MCP server, and it creates workspace-level context files that AI agents can read.
Codrel provides context collections (“tools”).
This extension simply exposes them to the editor.
Features
MCP Server Setup

Workspace Context Files
Adds tool entries to:
Kiro → .kiro/steering/codrel-tools.md
VS Code → .github/copilot-instructions.md
Token Storage
Saves your Codrel API token to the editor environment for use by the MCP server.
