Research direction
Reproduce the failure in VSCode v1.55.0 with MagicPython v1.1.0 and the listed Python Extension Pack installed, using both cmd + / and the Toggle Line Comment command. Check how MagicPython declares Python comments and how VSCode selects the active language mode. Done means line comments toggle normally without a shortcut conflict.

The issue I'm having is simple. I was using Python for VSCode without any issues but then started having code-coloring issues when using typings. I then installed "Python Extension Pack" (see below) which includes MagicPython, and when I try to run "cmd + /" or manually execute the command with "> Toggle Line Comment" it doesn't do anything.
I checked the keyboard shortcut and there is no conflicting shortcut as well as the keyboard shortcut is set correctly.
