Research direction

Start with the linked VS Code web-extensions guide, then inspect the extension's configuration and entry points for assumptions that prevent use in vscode.dev and github.dev. Done means the extension is recognized as compatible and can be used in both web environments; the issue does not name a specific file or test to run.
