VSCode extension that shows GitHub Issues labeled announcement from the repository you are currently working in. Open a repo → you see that repo's announcements. Switch to another repo → the list updates automatically.
There is no central announcements repo. To announce in multiple repos, file the issue in each one.

Requirements
GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated (gh auth login).
The current workspace is a GitHub repo (detected via the built-in Git extension — github.com remote URL).
How it works
The extension detects the current repo from the active file's git remote (owner/repo).
It runs gh issue list --repo <owner>/<repo> --label <label> --state open.
Unread announcements trigger a notification; the status bar shows the unread count.
"Mark read" tracks per-issue in VSCode global state.
Settings
announcements.label — label to filter by (default announcement).
announcements.refreshInterval — minutes between checks (default 30).
Commands
Announcements: Refresh
Announcements: View All
Announcements: Mark All Read
Posting an announcement
In the target repo, create a GitHub Issue with the announcement label. Any developer on that repo with the extension installed will see it within the next refresh cycle.
