Unofficial, third-party, community-built extension. Use at your own discretion.
This extension is designed to work with Paseo, an open-sourced desktop & mobile app for working with and managing AI coding agents - Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, Pi, and more.
It embeds the Paseo UI in a VS Code tab or side panel and connects to the Paseo daemon running on your machine. Paseo daemon to be installed separately.
Features
- Open chat files in VS Code. Click linked files in chat to open them in the editor, including line navigation when available.
- Drag files to mention them. Drag a file from the Explorer or your OS file
manager into the chat. Hold Shift while dropping to insert it as an
@-mention. - Auto-opens your workspace and host. Automatically opens the Paseo workspace that matches the current VS Code window - including the exact git worktree when you open a worktree directory.
- Works with WSL and remote SSH. When the VS Code window is connected to WSL or a remote SSH host, it connects the Paseo daemon running on the connected host.
Requirements
- A separate Paseo daemon installation is required. Download Paseo from the
official download page, then run the daemon on
your machine or on a host your VS Code is connecting to. The extension discovers
it from
~/.paseo/config.json, or setpaseo.endpoint(e.g.127.0.0.1:6767). - For Remote SSH / WSL, install the extension and run the Paseo daemon on the remote host.
- The extension currently connects only to TCP daemon endpoints such as
127.0.0.1:6767.
Commands
- Paseo: Open - open the Paseo panel.
- Paseo: Set Daemon Password / Paseo: Clear Daemon Password.
Development
See docs/vscode-extension.md for full setup, daemon discovery, the security model, and known limitations.
