This is a must feature, But I think it should follow VSCODE theme and not OS theme:

switch vibrancy to light mode+ when VScode theme is switched.
or dark mode+ when VScode theme is switched.
All based on VScode theme. 

There is native VSCODE follow OS theme setting, just search theme preferred in settings and enable that feature:
window.autoDetectColorScheme
"window.autoDetectColorScheme": false

The only part left for the extension is to adjust itself based on VSCode theme.

Hey,
Can you implement this?

[illixion]

This isn’t something that I’m personally interested in implementing as I use VSCode exclusively in dark mode, so don’t expect it to be implemented any time soon, but pull requests are always welcome. Perhaps this can be done using a CSS media query and the VSCode setting you’ve mentioned.

There was an example https://github.com/danielgjackson/vscode-auto-dark-mode-windows/blob/master/extension.js

I would give a try later.
