| description | Build and install the extension from source |
The extension is not yet published on the VS Code Marketplace. Install it by building a .vsix package from source.
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/ai-engineering-coach.git
cd ai-engineering-coach
npm install
npm run packageThis produces a .vsix file in the project root.
From the command line:
code --install-extension ai-engineer-coach-*.vsixOr open the Extensions panel in VS Code, click the ... menu, choose Install from VSIX..., and select the file.
To run the extension in development mode instead, use npm run build and press F5 in VS Code to launch the Extension Development Host.
After installation, open the Command Palette and run:
AI Engineer Coach: Open Dashboard
You can also click the AI Engineer Coach icon in the Activity Bar (sidebar) if it appears there.
AI Engineer Coach works out of the box with sensible defaults. Optional settings are available under aiEngineerCoach.* in VS Code settings to control cache behavior, date ranges, and workspace filtering.
