Problem Statement
Claude can write files directly, but it can't run the save participants in VS Code. The current VS Code extension exposes these tools for CC:
- mcp__ide__getDiagnostics - get language diagnostics
- mcp__ide__executeCode - execute code in Jupyter kernel
Proposed Solution
I propose adding a new tool for saving a file via the VS Code extension API so that save participants run on save. This will apply Prettier (even when used with the implicit config provided by the VS Code Prettier extension which is different from the config Prettier uses when run using bunx) etc.
Alternative Solutions
I don't see an alternative, ignoring the save participants when I am using Claude Code in the VS Code integrated terminal and have the VS Code extension is just bad product design.
