Pull Request Overview
This PR introduces the ability to build and install the tsgo VS Code extension while overriding the built-in TypeScript extension when needed, and it adds a warning-colored status bar item to signal the active tsgo mode.
- Adds a status bar item and associated quick pick menu for extension commands.
- Implements logic to skip activation when the built-in TypeScript extension is active and configuration dictates.
- Updates the Herebyfile to include an insiders option for extension installation.

Ah, seems like you have the npm bug that Kat fixed; probably want to restore your lockfile to main, delete all node_modules, and then install again. |

herebycommand to build and persistently install the tsgo VS Code extension. It does nothing if the default typescript-language-features extension is active. microsoft/vscode#246858 allows for disabling that one via configuration/command, allowing the tsgo LSP to take over. Also adds a warning-colored status bar item to make it obvious when you’re running tsgo instead of stable TypeScript in the editor.Screen.Recording.2025-04-17.at.12.27.57.PM.mov
