[DOCS] [VSCode] Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+T to reopen recently closed session tab is undocumented

Documentation Type

Missing documentation (feature not documented)

Documentation Location

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/vs-code

Section/Topic

Keyboard shortcuts and command reference (or a new "Session management" section)

Current Documentation

No documentation exists for this feature. The VS Code extension settings table in the docs does not list enableReopenClosedSessionShortcut. The "VS Code commands and shortcuts" table does not include a command for reopening a recently closed session tab.

The closest related entries in the shortcuts table are:

| Command | Shortcut | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Open in New Tab | Cmd+Shift+Esc (Mac) / Ctrl+Shift+Esc (Windows/Linux) | Open a new conversation as an editor tab |
| New Conversation | Cmd+N (Mac) / Ctrl+N (Windows/Linux) | Start a new conversation |

There is no entry for reopening the most recently closed session tab.

What's Wrong or Missing?

The v2.1.139 changelog entry describes a new feature:

[VSCode] Press Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+T to reopen the most recently closed session tab, configurable via claudeCode.enableReopenClosedSessionShortcut

This keyboard shortcut and its associated setting are not documented anywhere in the VS Code extension documentation.

A. Missing keyboard shortcut documentation

The "VS Code commands and shortcuts" table does not include a command for this action. Users have no way of discovering this shortcut without reading the changelog.

B. Missing extension setting

The claudeCode.enableReopenClosedSessionShortcut setting is not listed in the extension settings table. Users who want to disable this shortcut have no way to do so through documented settings.

Suggested Improvement

Add to the "VS Code commands and shortcuts" table:

| Command | Shortcut | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Reopen Closed Tab | Cmd+Shift+T (Mac) / Ctrl+Shift+T (Windows/Linux) | Reopen the most recently closed session tab |

Add to the extension settings table:

| Setting | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| enableReopenClosedSessionShortcut | true | Enable Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+T to reopen the most recently closed session tab in VS Code |

Alternatively, if session tab management is intended to be documented under a broader session management section, add this shortcut and setting to that section.

Impact

High - Prevents users from discovering a useful new feature
