Open in VS Code is a handy Chrome extension that adds a convenient button to popular development platforms like GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Jira, allowing you to open or clone projects directly in Visual Studio Code with a single click. Designed to streamline developers' workflows, it supports opening Bitbucket pull requests and Jira issues inside VS Code. To use it, you'll need the 'Open Recent via URI' and optionally the 'Atlassian Atlascode' plugins installed in VS Code.

Key features include seamless navigation from repository or issue pages to your code editor, integration with multiple platforms, and keyboard shortcuts (Cmd+Shift+O for Mac and Ctrl+Shift+O for Windows/Linux) for even faster access. This extension significantly improves productivity by reducing context switching and accelerating code review and development tasks.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Open in VS Code requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
