Agent Plus
A dependency of Claude Code Plus and Codex Plus: installing either one installs this too. Installed on its own it does nothing.

Install
- From the marketplace: install Claude Code Plus or Codex Plus; VS Code installs this with it.
- From
.vsix files, while this is not on the marketplace: install this one first, then the extension that uses it.
bash build/pack.sh
code --install-extension build/xnervwang.agent-plus-1.0.0.vsix --force
code --install-extension xnervwang.codex-plus-0.1.0.vsix --force
--force installs a .vsix whose version number is already installed, which a rebuilt one is.
A new build needs VS Code quit and opened again, not only the window reloaded, when it changes what a view's when reads.
In a Remote SSH window, install both on the remote.
In Restricted Mode the views are read only: no answer is sent and nothing is written. An untrusted window also cannot see the extension that uses this one, since VS Code disables an extension whose own dependency is disabled, so it hides the views and says nothing until the workspace is trusted.
Agent Plus: Show Status lists the extensions using it and the registered sources.
Known limits
| Limit |
Detail |
| The request limit is only changed in a VS Code installed where VS Code installs itself |
A portable or ZIP copy, or one in a directory of your own, is not found: the client's application directory is searched in the places each platform puts it, and a remote window cannot ask the client where it was started from. Agent Plus: Show Status then logs no installation found, nothing is asked and no file is touched. To raise it anyway, replace maxActiveHostResourceResponseBodies=32, with maxActiveHostResourceResponseBodies=1000000, in out/vs/workbench/contrib/webview/browser/pre/service-worker.js under that copy of VS Code, and quit and reopen it |
For extension authors
