CLI v1.2.0

Added

• Add --follow-symlinks to publish, forwarding vsce's option of the same name so that the file walk recurses into symlinked directories instead of packing each symlink as a file. Needed for a node_modules assembled out of symlinks, as pnpm's is (#368)
• Add search command to search the registry for extensions, mirroring the web UI's search: --category, --target, --sort-by and --sort-order narrow the query, --size and --offset page through the results, and --json prints the registry's raw response (#2154)
• Add list command to print the extensions a namespace holds, sorted by name so the output stays stable across registries, with --json for the raw namespace metadata (#2154)
• Add show command to print an extension's metadata, mirroring vsce show: identity, publisher, rating, notices and a version history listing each version's target platforms (#2149). namespace.extension@version reports a single version, --target scopes the report to one target platform, --all-versions lists every published version instead of the most recent few, and --json prints the registry's raw metadata
• Add unpublish command to delete an extension or some of its versions, mirroring vsce unpublish (#1958); requires a registry running version 1.2.0 or later, which unpublish checks for before deleting
• publish checks the packaged extension's size against the limit reported by the registry's /api/version endpoint before uploading, instead of failing only after the upload completes (#1953)
• Add verify command to check a downloaded .vsix package's signature against the registry's public key, mirroring vsce verify-signature (#993)
• Add verify-signature command, verifying an already-extracted package/manifest/signature file trio entirely offline (no registry involved), matching vsce verify-signature's own command shape (#993)

Fixed

• Error messages naming a URL no longer include its query string, which for createNamespace, verifyPat, publish and delete carried the personal access token straight to stderr and into CI logs (#2186)

• A connection lost after a JSON response has started no longer leaves the command waiting on a body that is not coming: the response's own error is now what settles the request, so it fails with the reset rather than hanging (#2186)

• Requests now give up after 30 seconds without progress instead of hanging indefinitely when a server accepts a connection and then says nothing. OVSX_TIMEOUT overrides the duration in milliseconds and OVSX_TIMEOUT=0 disables it; it measures inactivity, so a large extension downloading slowly is unaffected, and it covers the trusted-publishing ID token request as well as the registry's own (#2186)

• Fix downloads that could be read before they were written. download resolved when the response ended rather than when the file was closed, and a write stream opens and flushes asynchronously, so a caller reading the path immediately afterwards could find the file empty or absent - which verify did, intermittently failing to read the public key it had just fetched. A failed download no longer touches the target path: the body is written beside it and renamed into place only once it has arrived whole, so a 404 or a dropped connection leaves what was there alone. A connection dropped mid-download now rejects rather than leaving the caller waiting forever (#2185)

Changed

• publish --trusted-publishing retries the token exchange when the registry answers that it could not verify the ID token (502, 503, 504), rather than failing the build on a blip reaching the identity provider. A refusal is never retried
• publish --trusted-publishing requests a new token and retries once when the registry refuses the one it was publishing with. The issued token is short-lived and shared by every target platform of a release, so publishing a wide fan-out of large packages could outlive it and fail partway through. Targets that are refused together share one new token, and a token supplied with --pat is never retried
• Bump minimum supported Node.js version to 22, matching the webui component
