HashiCorp Terraform for VS Code: two settings that cut provider-doc lookups

HashiCorp Terraform for VS Code (v2.39.3, 6.4M installs) ships two off-by-default settings worth enabling: `prefillRequiredFields` auto-inserts every required resource attribute as a tab-stop snippet, and `mcp.server.enable` wires GitHub Copilot to live Terraform Registry data via a containerized MCP server — eliminating training-data guesses on provider schemas.

KeyRunner — turn any VS Code API request into a credential-safe AI tool

KeyRunner (`KeyRunner.keyrunner` v1.0.97) is a local-first VS Code API client supporting HTTP/REST, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, and Kafka — with an AI Tool Converter that wraps any saved request into a credential-safe, MCP-compatible AI tool so your agent never sees the raw API key.

Container Tools — choose which services to start

Container Tools (ms-azuretools.vscode-containers) v2.4.5 is Microsoft's VS Code extension for Docker and Podman — the direct successor to the legacy Docker extension (51M+ installs).

DBCode v1.33.0 — a full SQL client inside VS Code, with Copilot and MCP built in

DBCode v1.33.0 (700K+ installs, 4.7★) is a complete multi-database SQL client that runs inside VS Code — no alt-tabbing to TablePlus or DataGrip. Its SQL Notebooks let you annotate a SQL cell with `-- @var sales`, run it, and the result set lands in the next Python cell as a ready-to-use pandas DataFrame with zero boilerplate. Copilot Tools, a zero-config MCP server, and an AI Query Builder are included; Core Edition is permanently free.

CMake C/C++ workflow in VS Code without cpptools — Kylin CMake Workflow v0.3.1

Kylin CMake Workflow (KylinIdeTeam.kylin-cmake-tools v0.3.1) is a community fork of Microsoft's CMake Tools extension that strips every cpptools dependency — making CMake configure/build/debug work on VSCodium, Cursor, and any clangd-first setup. It auto-injects CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS at configure time so clangd always has a compile database, with no manual settings edits required.

One flag gives your AI agent live control of your Flutter app

Dart-Code.flutter (v3.137.20260601, 13.97M installs) is the official Flutter VS Code extension by Google. Flutter 3.44 shipped an MCP server that lets GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex CLI call 15+ live development tools — hot reload, widget inspector, runtime error fetch, and more — directly against your running app. Enable it with a single settings flag: "dart.mcpServer": true.

Metals v2.0.0-M13: full Scala IDE in VS Code without IntelliJ

Metals (`scalameta.metals`) is the official Scala Language Server, developed by Scala Center and VirtusLab, bringing 27+ LSP features — completions, go-to-definition across library sources, integrated test running, and scalafmt formatting — to VS Code and six other editors. v2.0.0-M13 Gold (2026-05-20) adds a Gradle MBT extractor, BSP CodeLenses, and a forward-port from v1.6.7 stable.

Dexter — the Go-based Elixir LSP that indexes 57k files in 11 seconds

Dexter (`remoteoss.dexter-lsp` v0.2.1) is a Go-based Elixir language server built by Remote.com for their 57,000-file monorepo — cold-indexes in ~11 seconds by parsing source text directly into SQLite rather than compiling the project. The article covers a 3-step VS Code setup (Homebrew binary → extension install → format-on-save config), a full rundown of its LSP capabilities (go-to-definition including Erlang, hover docs, completions, rename, unused-variable detection), honest caveats (no Dialyzer, no debugger, macro-heavy Ash Framework projects lose coverage, Intel Mac requires source build), and v0.7.0 highlights including Erlang support and a Claude Code plugin.

Mago — the Rust-powered PHP linter and formatter that sets up in 5 minutes

Mago (v1.29.0) is a single Rust binary that replaces PHP-CS-Fixer, PHPStan, and PHP_CodeSniffer for PHP projects — formatting WordPress (7M lines) in 0.43 seconds vs PHP-CS-Fixer's 25.3 seconds. The official VS Code extension `Clearlyip.mago-vscode-extension` v0.9.5 connects via a persistent LSP server rather than spawning a CLI process on each save, enabling real-time diagnostics and format-on-save. Covers 4-step setup, before/after formatting demo, and honest caveats on the unstable LSP preview, analyzer false positives, and the lack of a PHP extension ecosystem.

Ruby LSP — the VS Code extension that now runs a Rust engine under the hood

Ruby LSP (Shopify.ruby-lsp, 1.84M installs) replaced its entire code indexer with Rubydex — a Rust-powered static analysis engine — in v0.27.0, eliminating async race conditions and powering go-to-definition, hover docs, test discovery, and more with synchronous precision.
