- [ ] Other:
- Claude CLI version: 1.0.31
- Operating System: Arch linux 6.15.3-arch1-1
- Terminal: Ghostty
Bug Description
When running /ide, I get the error: No available IDEs detected. This is despite the Claude Extension being successfully installed and running.
Steps to Reproduce
- Launch VS Code from the terminal
- Open the terminal in VS Code and run
claude - Run the
/idecommand
Expected Behavior
IDE connection works.
Actual Behavior
No available IDEs detected. error.
Additional Context
The lock file in ~/.claude/ide is created successfully and appears to be valid. I am able to manually establish a connection to the plugin, so it does appear to be listening for incoming connections correctly.
I tried uninstalling the Claude extension and re-installing it, both by running the claude command from the in-IDE terminal per the instructions and by manually installing the extension.
I verified the extension and the CLI match in version.
The IDE integration previously worked for me before a recent update.
Version 1.0.27 is the last version that works correctly for me. All versions after this no longer function correctly.
Version
1.0.27is the last version that works correctly for me. All versions after this no longer function correctly.
Unfortunately, I tried it and it cannot work
It's still the same error
It's still the same error
Make sure the VS Code plugin is the same version (1.0.27). You can ensure this by uninstalling the plugin, restarting the VS Code session, then running claude from the in-IDE terminal. If it still gives you the same error, you may be encountering a different root cause than me.
