Extension Host

Host Contract

The host exposes stable lifecycle and context contracts through extension packages. Extensions register commands, views, settings, and contributions through governed adapters instead of patching the client directly.

Runtime Controls

The runtime handles activation, compatibility, persisted state, diagnostics, and trust policy enforcement. The manager extension gives users a visible operator console for installed extension behavior.

First-Party Extensions

Current bundled surfaces include Extension Manager, Theme Studio, Language Pack Studio, Gemini Agent, Workspace Files, Git Operations, and catalog examples.
