Currents for VS Code

Troubleshoot CI failures right where you code. Currents.dev brings runs, errors, flaky tests analytics, CI builds and Pull Request failures into your IDE — so you can diagnose and fix issues with your agent without switching context.

Features

Drill into test failures with error messages, stack traces, and trace files — then feed that context to an AI agent to troubleshoot and resolve CI failures in one step.

Run Feed

Browse your latest CI test runs directly in the sidebar. Runs are filtered by your current git branch automatically and refresh every 30 seconds so you always see what's happening.

Filter by branch or author
Auto-refresh with a single toggle

Pull Request View

Debug and troubleshoot CI failures without ever leaving your IDE. Each PR surfaces a timeline of commits and builds right in the sidebar — no dashboard tab-switching needed. Spot a failure, hit "Fix with Agent", and move on.

Test Explorer

Surface the flakiest and slowest tests across your project over configurable date ranges (14 / 30 / 60 / 90 days).

Sort by flakiness rate or average duration
Jump to the test file and line in one click
Send flaky or slow tests to AI for automated analysis and fixes

Run Details

Click any run to open a full detail panel with every spec and test result. Failed tests show error messages and stack traces inline.

One-click "Fix with Agent" sends the failure context straight to your AI chat (Copilot, Cursor, etc.) to generate a fix
"Open in Dashboard" jumps to the full Currents web UI for deeper analysis

Analyze with Currents

An inline CodeLens / Quick Fix action appears above every test definition in your code. Trigger it to pull recent failure data from the Currents API and send a rich, context-aware prompt to your AI assistant.

MCP Server Integration

The extension automatically registers a Currents MCP server so AI agents in Cursor and VS Code can query runs, test results, and spec instances directly through tool calls.

Getting Started

Install the extension from the VS Code Marketplace or search "Currents" in the Extensions panel.
Open the Currents panel in the Activity Bar.
Click Set API Key and paste your Currents.dev API key.

resources/logo.svg — Activity Bar icon in the editor sidebar. Must be SVG with a single fill color (VS Code applies theme coloring). Recommended 24x24 viewBox.
