Workspace Extension Guard

Ensure strict extension consistency across your team and projects.

Workspace Extension Guard allows you to define a specific set of active extensions (and their versions) for a workspace. It automatically helps you install missing extensions and identifies unwanted extensions that should be disabled.

Features

• 📸 Snapshot System: Creates a workspace-snapshot.json file containing your currently active extensions and their exact versions.
• 🔒 Version Locking: Ensures everyone on the team is using the same version of tools (downgrades/upgrades automatically).
• 🚫 Unwanted Detection: Automatically updates .vscode/extensions.json to mark non-snapshot extensions as "Unwanted".
• 🛡️ Global Ignore List: Keep your personal extensions (Themes, Keymaps, Vim) active without them being flagged as unwanted.

How to Use

1. Export: Run Extension Guard: Export Current State to create a snapshot of your current extensions.
2. Sync: When opening the project later (or on another machine), the extension will prompt to install missing extensions.
3. Clean: Unwanted extensions will be flagged in VS Code's "Recommended" section.

Requirements

• The code command must be available in your PATH.

Enjoy a consistent development environment!
