Claude Code editor integration

Claude Code Nest

VSCode extension that adds a virtual organization layer (folders, tags, links, and read-only smart groups) over Claude Code chat sessions, so 50+ chats stop overflowing the tab bar. Strictly read-only on Claude's transcripts.

From the README

Claude Code Nest

A read-only organizer for your Claude Code chat history, right in the VS Code sidebar.

Claude Code Nest adds its own Activity Bar panel that turns a sprawling pile of
Claude Code sessions into folders, tags, links, stars, and an archive, so you can
find and revisit any chat without it ever touching Claude's transcripts.

Features

- Organize panel. The primary view, with a Starred section, a Questions
  section (chats with an unread assistant turn that asks something, a scan-time
  heuristic labeled as such), a single-home folder hierarchy with per-folder color

  collapse-one-level control and full keyboard navigation). Tag filter chips, sort,
  folder rename, drag-to-unfile, and in-panel drag-and-drop. Each chat row carries a
  hover-revealed add-tag + control, and a row whose tag pills overflow drifts them
  slowly so every tag is readable (static under reduced motion). The panel follows
  your VS Code theme.
- Unread and question markers. Each chat row shows where it stands: a blinking
  ? badge when Claude's last message asks you something, and a solid unread dot
  when Claude replied and you have not looked yet. Both clear as soon as you open the
  chat, either from the panel or by focusing its Claude Code tab. This read state is
  per device and is never synced. The focused chat also gets a subtle active-row tint,
  and Questions and search results show each chat's folder breadcrumb.
- Full-text content search. Search across chat content from the Organize
  panel and see a matched-context snippet under each result. Clearing the query
  restores the full list.
- Star and archive. Starred chats surface in the Starred section; archived chats
  move into an…
