Update vscode version to latest

We really need an update… python extension is now consistently failing to recognize some imports in the active venv. Cursor is starting to become unusable

An additional gap is vscode’s support for extensions that register MCP servers.

For those who want to run TypeScript (Native Preview) on the latest preview/beta builds of Cursor, I’ve found a workaround that works. You’ll likely need to repeat this after each update.

Here are the steps:

  1. Download the VSIX: Go to the VS Code Marketplace within VSCode, search for the extension, right click and click Download VSIX.
  2. Extract the VSIX: Rename the .vsix file to .zip and unzip its contents into a new folder.
  3. Modify Compatibility: Open the folder in e.g. VSCode or Cursor and search and replace all instances of ^1.100.0 to ^1.99.0.
  4. Repackage: Zip up the contents of the folder (not the folder itself) and rename the resulting .zip file back to .vsix.
  5. Install in Cursor: Open Cursor, go to the Extensions view, click the ... menu, and select “Install from VSIX…”.

This should get it working!

Hi @ItsWendell thanks for posting the workaround. Could you share what is the cause of the issue with included TypeScript support?
