Pilot update for desktop VS Code. Real account and corporate network validation is pending.

• Show credit usage and projections with up to one decimal place; display positive usage that would round to zero as <0.1% in the status bar, hover and detail panel.
• Use GitHub green for Connect GitHub, with theme colors in high contrast modes.
• Clarify the connection prompt in the panel and VS Code authorization dialog.
• Use a circular extension icon with transparent corners while preserving the original logo.

Validation and limits

Release validation passed on the tagged commit, covering Node 24.21.0 / 26.11.1, VS Code 1.120.0 / 1.141.0, dependency audit and the installed production VSIX. Branch CI also passed on the same commit.

The attached VSIX was downloaded unchanged from the release draft and tested in an isolated Windows 11 profile: all 6 automated package tests passed on VS Code 1.141.0. Its manifest, package contents, demo exclusion and SHA-256 were verified. Publication retained that same tested file without rebuilding.

These are synthetic tests. Real sign-in, account quotas and corporate network compatibility remain unverified. The extension uses an internal GitHub endpoint; GHE.com, GitHub Enterprise Server and web hosts are unsupported. Marketplace publication is pending.
