Universal Agent OS (VS Code Extension)

This is the official Enterprise IDE extension for the Universal Agent OS, a consultation-first governance framework for AI coding agents.

What's New in v1.4.7 (Repository Sync)

Marketplace & NPM Sync: Synchronized README versions and release history across GitHub, VS Code Marketplace, and NPM packages to ensure 100% accuracy.

Conditional Status Bar: Status bar now shows Agent OS: Active, Not Initialized, or No Workspace based on your project's governance state, and updates dynamically via file watchers.
Git Error Guidance: Improved error messaging when Git is not installed or network fails during initialization — now suggests Git install link and ZIP fallback.
Changelog Cleanup: Fixed changelog ordering and added NPM publishing badges to main README.

Next Steps File: Init now creates and opens NEXT_STEPS.md so beginners immediately know what to do after installation.
Brownfield Snapshot: Existing projects receive an initial top-level folder summary inside TECH_DEBT_AND_SECURITY.md.
Command Palette Shortcuts: Added Fast-Track, Status, and Closure Check commands for common governance workflows.

Full Runtime Payload: Agent OS: Init Workspace now installs the selected locale pack plus shared docs, skills, registries, workflows, examples, MCP server, and CI templates.
Clean vs Existing Project Detection: Existing project detection now runs before files are copied, so empty folders are not mistakenly marked as legacy projects.
Brownfield Safety: Existing projects receive TECH_DEBT_AND_SECURITY.md, collision backups under .agentos-backups/, and user README.md preservation via AGENT_OS_README.md.
Local Verification: Agent OS: Verify Governance Gate now checks required workspace files inside VS Code instead of relying on a public npm CLI.

Target Project Adapters: Fixed an architectural issue where root IDE adapters (.cursorrules, .windsurfrules, etc.) were copied directly instead of utilizing the target-specific adapters inside the en/ and tr/ locale packs. All major IDEs (Cursor, Devin, Windsurf, Roo, Cline, OpenHands) now successfully receive their localized, zero-config Agent OS adapters out of the box.

Unified Cloud Fetch: Agent OS: Init Workspace now perfectly mirrors the CLI installer behavior. It asks for your preferred language pack (English/Turkish), securely fetches the latest architecture from GitHub, and installs it directly into your root folder ensuring 100% "Zero-Config Auto-Discovery" compatibility with all AI agents.
Legacy Quarantine Auto-Detect: The extension automatically scans your folder. If it detects an existing codebase, it drops a strict TECH_DEBT_AND_SECURITY.md file to prevent AI from blindly rewriting your old spaghetti code.
Persistent Status Bar: A dedicated 🛡️ Agent OS indicator lives in your VS Code status bar, showing Active, Not Initialized, or No Workspace based on your project state.

Init Workspace: Use Agent OS: Init Workspace to download the runtime Agent OS architecture into your project.
Start Phase-0 Interview: Instantly trigger the Phase-0 onboarding interview directly from the Command Palette.
Verify Governance Gate: Click the Status Bar icon or use the Command Palette to run verification checks inside VS Code.
Fast-Track Prompt: Copy the Fast-Track chat prompt from the Command Palette.
Show Status: Create and open AGENT_OS_STATUS.md with required surface checks.
Closure Check Prompt: Copy the closure checklist prompt before calling work done.
Anti-Monolith Warning: Monitors file sizes and warns you if your files exceed the configured line limit.
Zero-Zombie-Code Policy: Highlights // TODO and // FIXME comments to ensure they are tracked.

Install & Init: Open an empty project (or legacy project) and run Agent OS: Init Workspace from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).
Phase 0: Run Agent OS: Start Phase-0 Interview to align your AI.
Payload: For the exact file payload, see docs/INSTALLATION_MANIFEST.md in the main repository.
Verify: Use Agent OS: Verify Governance Gate from the Command Palette or the status bar before committing code.
