Thanks for submitting this issue. Please also check if it is already covered by an existing one, like:

• Tool tip is missing for create new codespace and select plan button. (#112705)

@isidorn do we have extension API that lets extensions announce things? What is needed here is a way for an extension to announce a status after a command has been run.

[isidorn]

@alexr00 we do not have that API, however I have already heard requests like that and due to that I just created this item for next milestone: #114718

[alexr00]

Excellent, thanks @isidorn. Once we have API for this, it will be up to the extension to appropriately use it. Thus, moving this issue to the Codespaces extension.
