Threaded comments anchored to highlighted text — reply, edit, delete.
Smart anchoring survives edits via surrounding-context matching; flags stale comments when the highlighted text changes and lets you reparent orphans when content is removed.
Side-by-side preview with rendered markdown (incl. Mermaid) and a comment sidebar; counts shown next to each comment.
.comments.json sidecar stored next to each doc — fully version-controlled, travels with branches and merges.
Activity Bar sidebar lists all workspace markdown files with comment counts and a folder filter.

Quick Start

Right-click any .md file → Markdown: Review and Comment (or open from the sidebar).
In the preview, highlight a span of text and click the 💬 prompt that appears to start a comment.

Setting	Default	Description
`markdownReview.excludeFolders`	`["node_modules", ".git", ...]`	Folders hidden from the sidebar tree.
