Clicking a reference in Claude Code output opens editor quick-open instead of the link

Description

In the Claude Code IDE extension/panel (VS Code-family editor), a reference in the Claude Code output — in this case a GitLab CI pipeline ID (e.g. 40408052) that should resolve to a URL — was clickable, but clicking it opened the editor's quick-open / file-search box with the ID pre-filled instead of opening the link in a browser. The quick-open box then showed "No matching results", since the value isn't a filename.

Expected behavior

Clicking the reference should open the corresponding URL (e.g. the GitLab pipeline page) in the browser, the same way a normal hyperlink would.

Actual behavior

The click is intercepted by the editor's generic "go to file/symbol" quick-open behavior instead of being treated as a link to open externally. This suggests the reference isn't being emitted as a proper hyperlink (e.g. OSC-8 terminal hyperlink or markdown link) by the time it reaches the editor panel, so the editor falls back to its own heuristic for anything that looks like it could be a symbol/identifier.

Environment

• Claude Code IDE extension panel embedded in a VS Code-family editor
• Multi-root workspace with two Claude Code panels open side by side (one per project root)

Screenshot

A screenshot showing the quick-open box with 40408052 and "No matching results" is available; happy to attach if there's a way to do so on this issue.
