Install and open
Install the extension from the VS Code Marketplace, open a Git repository, select the AIWorkHub activity-bar view and open the dashboard. The extension prepares repository-local state and exposes manager and worker MCP surfaces.
Existing model authorization
VS Code Language Model routes use models already visible in the editor and request one-time consent for an exact model when first needed. CLI routes reuse their own authenticated sessions; AIWorkHub does not copy editor or CLI credentials.
Remote SSH
The workspace extension and repository runtime operate on the remote host while the VS Code Language Model bridge uses the model catalog available to the client window. Repository state stays with the remote repository.
Default-off mutations
Repository writes and worker launches use independent gates. The MCP transport is stdio-only, and task state, callbacks and audit records stay scoped to the active repository.
