After review, I cannot classify my defect as a duplicate.

I'm having the same issue.

I didn't see any error messages though - where did you locate this? The jsonl lines corresponding to the the /ide command execution does not contain further info.

我也遇到了，有解决办法吗？

same problem for v 1.0.100

<img width="551" height="228" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5efc7abd-b3cb-4b3e-af8e-9c43023e1eaa" />

But if execute claude from external terminal, it shows:

If I change that to "Visual Studio Code" - the integration starts work in the terminal:

But still does not work in VS Code integrated terminal.

@Tum4ik Same on 1.0.100 Windows 11 (though Parallels) was working fine for weeks, now just broken again.

@sitefinitysteve Similar issue here - latest update borked something for sure; was working fine yesterday and for the past few weeks (Windows 11, VS Code Insiders latest, Claude Code 1.0.100).

it seems fixed in v 1.0.102

@Tum4ik Sadly not here :/ CLI\Extension updated, restarted, still no dice

it seems fixed in v 1.0.102

@Tum4ik Interestingly, it works fine on my VS Code Insiders at home, but still does not recognize my VS Code Insiders at work (essentially just different profiles). Strange.

From this issue https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/5153

This works, but I have to keep running this command, not the extension link which is annoying, but it works for now
cmd /c "set VSCODE_PID= && set VSCODE_CWD= && set TERM_PROGRAM= && claude"

So just TERM_PROGRAM is all that needs to be set it seems, at this point recommend making a task so it puts "Claude Code" in the terminal list instead of just "cmd"

Recommend at this point a VSCode Task

{
"label": "Claude Code",
"type": "shell",
"command": "cmd",
"args": ["/c", "set TERM_PROGRAM= && claude"],
"group": "none",
"presentation": {
"echo": true,
"reveal": "always",
"focus": false,
"panel": "new"
},
"problemMatcher": []
}

Or new Integrated terminal

"Claude Code": {
"path": "cmd.exe",
"args": ["/c", "set TERM_PROGRAM= && claude"],
"icon": "robot"
}

I did a complete gut and reinstall of CC, and it happens every time, zero issues on MacOS, IDE detected.

1.0.119

@sitefinitysteve, where did you make these edits?

@prototowb VSCode .vscode\tasks.json

{
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
        {
            "label": "Claude Code",
            "type": "shell",
            "command": "cmd",
            "args": ["/c", "set TERM_PROGRAM= && claude"],
            "group": "none",
            "presentation": {
                "echo": true,
                "reveal": "always",
                "focus": true,
                "panel": "new"
            },
            "isBackground": false,
            "runOptions": {
                "instanceLimit": 1
            },
            "problemMatcher": []
        }
    ]
}

Then run with command palette Run->Task

or edit the settings.json terminal profiles

 "terminal.integrated.profiles.windows": {
        ...existing profiles
        "Claude Code": {
            "path": "cmd.exe",
            "args": ["/c", "set TERM_PROGRAM= && claude"],
            "icon": "robot"
        }
    },

Then run from

Neither are ideal vs the native extension, but both work in the interim
