Research direction

Start with the ai-mlstudio.openInVSCodeAzure command and the extension.js call-stack locations around v.beforeRun, v.process, and s.open. Reproduce the command on the reported Linux and VS Code versions, then trace the JSON input that produces the SyntaxError. Done means the command no longer fails with this parsing error and the regression is covered by an appropriate test.
