When to use this skill

Use this skill when the user wants to start a new VS Code extension project. This is the first step in the development workflow.

How to use this skill

Ask for Project Name: If the user hasn't provided a name, ask for it (e.g., "my-awesome-extension").
Execute Initialization Command: Run the following command to scaffold the project non-interactively.

# Replace <project-name> with the actual name
npx --package yo --package generator-code -- yo code <project-name> --template typescript --quick

Post-Initialization:
- Change directory into the new project:
```
cd <project-name>
```
- Explain the structure briefly:
  - ```
  src/extension.ts
```
  : Main entry point.
- ```
package.json
```
    : Manifest file.
- Run
```
npm install
```
  (if not already done by the generator, though
```
--quick
```
  usually handles it).

Example Interaction

User: "Create a new vscode extension named helper" Agent: "I'll initialize the project for you. Running:

npx --package yo --package generator-code -- yo code helper --template typescript --quick

... Project created! You can now start adding features."
