Research direction
The issue identifies the Salesforce Industries & Omnistudio (Vlocity) extension and its local VS Code availability, but names no repository files, tests, or implementation entry point. Start by determining how Code Builder extensions are selected and whether this extension can be supported; done means the extension is available and its OmniStudio workflows operate in Code Builder.

Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Yes, the issue is that the Salesforce Industries & Omnistudio (Vlocity) extension is not available in Salesforce Code Builder. This limits our ability to work with OmniStudio components such as DataRaptors, Integration Procedures, and FlexCards directly within the web-based IDE. It’s strange because this extension is essential for Salesforce Industries development and is available in VS Code locally.
Describe what you are ultimately trying to do
I’m trying to develop and manage OmniStudio components efficiently using Salesforce Code Builder. Currently, I rely on the local VS Code setup with the Vlocode extension to perform tasks like deploying components, retrieving metadata, and validating configurations. I’d like to move this workflow to Code Builder for better portability and ease of access.
Describe how you think Code Builder can help solve your problem or improve your work
If Code Builder supported the Salesforce Industries & Omnistudio (Vlocity) extension, it would allow developers to:
Access and manage OmniStudio components directly in the browser.
Eliminate the need for local setup and dependencies.
Improve collaboration and onboarding for new developers.
Streamline development workflows for Salesforce Industries projects.
Additional context
Here’s a screenshot of the available extensions in VS code locally, where the Vlocity extension is available.

This feature would be a valuable addition for teams working extensively with Salesforce Industries and OmniStudio.
