What's New

  • Put tree context menu Go to Trace Point in the navigation group so it appears first
  • Clarify Agent Skill install: Python 3 on PATH; ZIP first; npx only if Node.js is present

Install the Extension with vsix file

  1. Download the release .vsix file (code-trace-tree-vscode-1.3.5.vsix).
  2. In VS Code / Cursor: Extensions → ... → Install from VSIX…
    (or Command Palette: Extensions: Install from VSIX…).
  3. Choose the downloaded .vsix file.
  4. Reload the window if prompted.

Agent Skill

This extension does not ship an AI agent. Install your preferred coding agent,
then install the code-trace-tree skill. Once installed, the agent can auto-load
it when your request is relevant, and the IDE syncs the agent's trace-point changes
as they are written. The skill is general — any agent that can load skill folders
can use it (for example Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, or Gemini CLI).

The skill lets the agent:

  • Resolve the bound global storage XML for the project
  • Search, add, move, and delete trace points
  • Rebind line locations after source edits on disk
  • Ask the IDE to reload / refresh plugin data
  • Select or navigate to nodes in the Code Trace Tree view

Agent Skill Installation

Python required: skill ops are Python scripts, so Python 3 must be on PATH
(python3 or python).

Option 1: Install from a ZIP file

Extract the zip by hand, or run the Linux/macOS commands, or run the Windows PowerShell commands.

  1. Download code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip from this release (one zip works across agents).
  2. Delete any existing code-trace-tree folder in the skills directory, then extract the zip there.

Done when the skills directory contains code-trace-tree/SKILL.md
(not the zip file, and not an extra nested code-trace-tree/code-trace-tree folder).

Agent (examples) Global Project-local
Claude Code ~/.claude/skills/ .claude/skills/
Cursor ~/.cursor/skills/ .cursor/skills/
GitHub Copilot ~/.copilot/skills/ .github/skills/
Codex ~/.agents/skills/ .agents/skills/
Gemini CLI ~/.gemini/skills/ .gemini/skills/

Or skip the manual extract and install from the command line (use one OS below).

The commands below use Claude Code (~/.claude/skills/) as an example. Replace .claude with your agent from the table (for example .cursor, .copilot, .agents, or .gemini).

Linux & macOS

curl -L https://github.com/saidake/code-trace-tree-vscode/releases/download/v1.3.5/code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip -o code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip
rm -rf ~/.claude/skills/code-trace-tree
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
unzip code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip -d ~/.claude/skills/
rm code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip

Project-local: unzip into .claude/skills/ (or your agent’s project-local path from the table) instead of the global folder.

Windows PowerShell

Same as the Linux/macOS commands, for Windows. Replace .claude with your agent from the table.

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://github.com/saidake/code-trace-tree-vscode/releases/download/v1.3.5/code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip" -OutFile "code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip"
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$HOME\.claude\skills\code-trace-tree" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path "$HOME\.claude\skills" | Out-Null
Expand-Archive -Path "code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip" -DestinationPath "$HOME\.claude\skills" -Force
Remove-Item "code-trace-tree-skill-1.3.5.zip"

Project-local: extract into .claude\skills\ (or your agent’s project-local path from the table).

Option 2: Install with npx (if you have Node.js)

If you already have Node.js, you can install the skill with npx.
Pass -g for all projects; omit it for this project only.
On Windows, add --copy if symlinks are not available.
If the skill is already installed, remove it first — npx skills add does not overwrite an existing skill.

npx skills remove code-trace-tree -g
npx skills add saidake/code-trace-tree-skill -g

Or explicit, non-interactive install for the agent you currently use (Cursor example):

npx -y skills remove code-trace-tree --agent cursor --global --yes
npx -y skills add saidake/code-trace-tree-skill --skill code-trace-tree --agent cursor --global --copy --yes

Set --agent to your current agent, for example cursor, claude-code, github-copilot, codex, or gemini-cli.

Or try without installing (Codex example; same --agent values):

npx skills use saidake/code-trace-tree-skill@code-trace-tree --agent codex

How to use the skill

The agent loads global or project-local skills (including the installed code-trace-tree).
Use it in your agent chat:

Help me generate some simple trace points related to the current topic.

Add simple trace points along the call path of method `test`.

Cursor ~/.cursor/skills/ .cursor/skills/
GitHub Copilot ~/.copilot/skills/ .github/skills/
Codex ~/.agents/skills/ .agents/skills/
Gemini CLI ~/.gemini/skills/ .gemini/skills/

How to use the skill

Installing the skill makes it available to the agent:

  • Project-local — npx..., omit -g, or extract the zip into the project skills folder
  • Global — npx..., pass -g, or extract the zip into the global skills folder

In VS Code, keep the extension open for the same project: it loads the agent’s
trace point changes in real time (no manual reload).

What's New

  • Agent skill create_tree.py generates a nested workflow in one call (ensures existing nodes, adds new ones)
  • LINE locators require --file, --line, and --content; the script computes occurrence
  • Mutating skill ops auto-create missing storage
  • Select every requested trace point in the tree, not only the first
  • Remove the skill before npx skills add (add does not overwrite)

What's New

  • Split skill add vs ensure (ensure is get-or-create; add always creates a new UUID); slim skill docs to script ops
  • Disable trace highlights and editor context menus in Git diff panes (Working Tree and Index)
  • Skill: do not delete existing traces unless the user asks (rebind "invalid" is locator status, not a delete list)
  • Clarify Agent Skill install: extract the zip into the agent skills directory and replace code-trace-tree if it already exists
  • Update marketplace preview screenshots

Plugin home page

What's New

  • Add Plugin home page button linking to VS Code Marketplace
  • Document the Agent Skill as agent-agnostic (listed agents are examples, not an exclusive support list)
  • Preferred workflow format: nest by call flow (sibling fan-out under a call)
  • Restructure Storage section into labeled bullets
  • Clarify skill auto-load (project-local vs global) and that VS Code loads agent trace changes in real time

Install the Extension with vsix file

  1. Download the release .vsix file (code-trace-tree-vscode-X.Y.Z.vsix).
  2. In VS Code / Cursor: Extensions → ... → Install from VSIX…
    (or Command Palette: Extensions: Install from VSIX…).
  3. Choose the downloaded .vsix file.
  4. Reload the window if prompted.

Agent Skill

This extension does not ship an AI agent. Install your preferred coding agent,
then install the Code Trace Tree skill. Once installed, the agent can auto-load
it when your request is relevant. The skill is general — any agent that can load
skill folders can use it (for example Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex,
or Gemini CLI).

The skill lets the agent:

  • Resolve the bound global storage XML for the project
  • Search, add, move, and delete trace points
  • Rebind line locations after source edits on disk
  • Ask the IDE to reload / refresh plugin data
  • Select or navigate to nodes in the Code Trace Tree view

Python required: trace_tree ops need Python 3 on PATH. Resolve / refresh /
select helpers do not.

Install skill — extract locations

Download code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip from this release (one zip works across agents).
Remove any existing code-trace-tree skill folder first, then extract into your
agent’s skills directory. Known paths for some agents:

Agent (examples) Global Project-local
Claude Code ~/.claude/skills/ .claude/skills/
Cursor ~/.cursor/skills/ .cursor/skills/
GitHub Copilot ~/.copilot/skills/ .github/skills/
Codex ~/.agents/skills/ .agents/skills/
Gemini CLI ~/.gemini/skills/ .gemini/skills/

Install example (Claude Code, Linux & macOS)

curl -L https://github.com/saidake/code-trace-tree-vscode/releases/download/v1.2.8/code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip -o code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip
rm -rf ~/.claude/skills/code-trace-tree
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
unzip code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip -d ~/.claude/skills/
rm code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip

Project-local: extract into .claude/skills/ instead of ~/.claude/skills/.
For other agents, use the same zip and extract into that agent’s skills path
(see the table above for examples).

Install example (Claude Code, Windows PowerShell)

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://github.com/saidake/code-trace-tree-vscode/releases/download/v1.2.8/code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip" -OutFile "code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip"
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$HOME\.claude\skills\code-trace-tree" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path "$HOME\.claude\skills" | Out-Null
Expand-Archive -Path "code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip" -DestinationPath "$HOME\.claude\skills" -Force
Remove-Item "code-trace-tree-skill-1.2.8.zip"

Project-local: extract into .claude\skills\. For other agents, use the same zip
and change the destination to that agent’s skills path (see the table above for examples).

How to use the skill

Installing the skill makes it available to the agent:

  • Project-local — available in agent sessions for that project
  • Global — available across projects for that agent

In VS Code, keep the extension open for the same project: it loads the agent’s
trace point changes in real time (no manual reload).

Examples:
