Bug
Context usage information is not displaying in the VS Code extension GUI. The /context command works correctly in CLI and returns expected data, but the visual/GUI representation is not rendering.
Environment
- VS Code extension
- Windows 11
- Claude Opus 4.6
- Claude Code (latest)
Steps to Reproduce
- Open Claude Code in VS Code extension
- Attempt to view context usage via GUI
- No context information displayed
Expected
Context usage should be visible in the GUI, similar to how /context displays it in CLI.
Workaround
Running /context command manually returns correct data.
