Visual Studio Code

VS Code commands

Commands contributed by the released Cortex extension for Visual Studio Code.

Run Cortex commands from the Command Palette, the Cortex views, or a relevant editor or result context menu. Availability depends on sign-in state, the open workspace, selection, and organization capabilities.

Area Commands
Editor actions Explain, fix, test, review, document, notebook context, artifact preview
Change review Review, keep or undo changes; validation output and terminal handoff
Security File, repository and dependency scans; finding triage and verification
Chat management Create, search, rename, fork, pin, organize and delete chats
Evidence and workflows Evidence workspaces, governed recipes, connectors and customizations
Pull requests Create, open and update pull requests with integrated browser assistance
Command Command ID
Sign In pervazivai-cortex.signin
Check Authentication pervazivai-cortex.checkAuth
Sign Out pervazivai-cortex.signout

Use the Cortex Commands view when the sign-in state makes one of these actions available.

When Cortex: Native Chat Enabled is on, use @cortex in VS Code Chat. The participant publishes /review, /security, /explain, /connectors, and /customize. These are the only slash commands currently registered by the extension.
