Development

This page covers local development workflows for the core binary, extension, and docs site.

Build the core binary

From repo root:

cd core
cargo build --release

Build and test the VS Code extension

cd extension
npm install
npm run compile
npm test

Watch mode:

cd extension
npm run watch

Package and install extension (Windows maintainer loop)

From repo root:

.\scripts\package-and-install-extension.ps1

This performs a quick packaging flow and installs the generated VSIX.

Run the docs website

cd website
npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000 to preview the docs.

Keeping docs current

When behavior changes in CLI, extension, runtime routing, or MCP tools:

• Update corresponding pages in website/content/docs
• Keep examples aligned with actual command/config behavior
• Validate docs locally before publishing
