2.1.52 The issue has not been fixed.
Same issue here on Windows. Version 2.1.51 fails to activate with:
Activating extension 'Anthropic.claude-code' failed: The argument 'filename' must be a file URL object, file URL string, or absolute path string. Received 'file:///home/runner/work/claude-cli-internal/claude-cli-internal/build-agent-sdk/sdk.mjs'.
Fix: downgrade to 2.1.49
code --install-extension anthropic.claude-code@2.1.49 --force
Then right-click the extension → Disable Auto Update so it doesn't update back to the broken version.
also reload your vs -> Ctrl+Shift+P -> Developer: Reload Window
yes for my case, this able to fix
my issue done fix with 2.1.52
for my cases, already fix, maybe u can try
npm uninstall -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@2.1.52
then restart for VS code, and try to open for it
