Install

From a .vsix file (MVP path)

# Cursor or VS Code, same command
code --install-extension talos-auditor-vscode-0.1.0.vsix
# or Cursor:
cursor --install-extension talos-auditor-vscode-0.1.0.vsix

A Marketplace publish lands in Phase J.1 final polish.

Prerequisites

• @talos-foundrix/auditor-agent installed + logged in — the extension reads your agent token from ~/.config/talos-auditor/.agent-token.
• If you haven't yet: npm i -g @talos-foundrix/auditor-agent && talos-auditor login

The extension never asks you to sign in separately — it reuses the CLI token, so you only authenticate once.

Settings

• talosAuditor.apiBase — API endpoint. Change only for self-hosted or a local dev API.
• talosAuditor.refreshIntervalSeconds — how often to poll. Default 60s, min 15s, max 10 min.

Commands

Available from the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P):

• Talos Auditor: Open My Activity — launches the dashboard.
• Talos Auditor: Refresh Status — forces an immediate poll (useful right after talos-auditor login on a new machine).

Privacy

The extension only reads local files (agent token) and queries one endpoint (/v1/agent/status). No telemetry, no analytics.
