What's Wrong?
In the vscode plugin when I emit commands for workbench.action.toggleMaximizedPanel, it acts as claude-vscode.focus, it doesn't matter what keybinding I use for the command, or if I select the command from the command pallet.
What Should Happen?
workbench.action.toggleMaximizedPanel should maximize my panel (as it used to until a few days ago)
