Bug Description
/status is reporting that the vs code etension has an issue installing:

 IDE: ✘ Error installing VS Code extension: 1: 1
      Please restart your IDE and try again.

but if i do /ide is says it is correctly connected to antigravity even on restart

claude reckons:

⏺ I can see the IDE connection is working - the output shows "Connected to Antigravity" which indicates successful communication. Let me
  verify by checking diagnostics:
  ⎿  [                                                                                                                                  
       {
         "uri": "file:///Users/tom/code/asvla/asvla-cf-workers/tsconfig.json",
     … +66 lines (ctrl+o to expand)

⏺ The VS Code extension is working correctly. I was able to:

  1. Connect to the IDE - "Connected to Antigravity" confirms the connection
  2. Retrieve diagnostics - Successfully got diagnostic info from open files (a few unused import warnings in your Java files)

  The error message in the status is likely stale or a transient issue during initial setup. The actual functionality is operational. You
   can safely ignore that status error.

so i will ignore it but it's a little annoying
