Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by locating the extension's CLI update and download entry point; done means an available update never downloads or installs without explicit user acceptance, while preserving the existing update check behavior.

Description

Complexity: Medium enhancement VSCode

Updating the CLI is a long operation. When there is an update available, sometimes the extension auto downloads and updates the cli. The user should always explicitly accept an update since that can break the workflow.
