Problem Statement

Would love to see official Microsoft Visual Studio (the full IDE,
not VS Code) extension support for Claude Code.

Currently .NET and C++ developers have limited options:

• Developer PowerShell in VS: Shift+Enter doesn't work,

/terminal-setup fails. Only backslash+Enter works.

• External Windows Terminal: Works, but opens in a separate

window and breaks the in-IDE workflow.

• Community extension (dliedke/ClaudeCodeExtension):

Appreciated, but it's a CLI wrapper rather than a native
integration — no inline diffs, no @-mention with line ranges,
no plan review, no checkpoint/rewind. Maintained by a single
developer, so feature parity and long-term support aren't
guaranteed.

The .NET ecosystem is large and Visual Studio-centric. An official
VSIX with feature parity to the VS Code extension would make
Claude Code a daily driver for many currently underserved developers.

Thank you for the great work!
