What's Wrong?

Claude code vscode extension is being updated too many times , multiple times a day. More than claude code itself. Why? Do you do a release on Vscode extension store everytime someone do a git push? or a merge request? Don't you have a planned release process? This is unacceptable, just too much.

Is the extension so buggy that a release can't wait?

To be fair, codex vsode extension suffers from the same issue. I just don't bother reporting to codex because i don't use codex as of now. But yes you two codex and claude, keep releasing multiple versions on the same day. why?

What Should Happen?

Create a plan for releases, like any company, do schedule release, or at least, ok release once a week or something, not multiple times a day.
