What's Wrong?
/terminal-setup installs the Shift+Enter keybinding to ~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/keybindings.json, which is the regular VS Code path. VS Code Insiders reads from ~/Library/Application Support/Code - Insiders/User/keybindings.json. Shift+Enter doesn't work until the binding is manually copied to the Insiders path.
What Should Happen?
/terminal-setup should detect whether the user is running VS Code or VS Code Insiders and install the keybinding to the correct path.
