AI governance directly in VS Code.

A VS Code extension that watches the workspace for AI SDKs, dependencies, and configuration, prompts engineers to register sanctioned systems, and runs pre-launch checks from the command palette. Runs entirely on the developer's machine. Currently in Preview; the Visual Studio Marketplace listing follows.

Capabilities

What the extension surfaces today

Workspace AI discovery

Detects AI SDKs, model client libraries, prompts, and configuration as engineers commit. Each candidate carries file path, commit reference, and matched span back to a governance owner with full context.

Governance context inline

Hover an @korasafe-system tag to see owner, risk tier, open findings, and policy status without leaving the editor.

Pre-launch checks

Run KoraSafe heuristic reviews from the command palette before a system promotes to production. Block on critical findings or let the team triage.

Registration prompts

Surface "register this AI system or mark it as an experiment" prompts when the workspace hits a new AI dependency. Catch shadow AI at the point of introduction, not three quarters later.

Install

Install the extension while it's in Preview

The extension is at v0.x in Preview. The Visual Studio Marketplace listing follows the security review. To install today, download a release from GitHub or build from source:

  1. Open the korasafe/vscode-extension releases page and download the latest .vsix artifact.
  2. In VS Code, open the command palette and run Extensions: Install from VSIX....
  3. Select the downloaded .vsix file.
  4. Run KoraSafe: Set API key to authenticate with your KoraSafe organization.
  5. Open a workspace with AI code and the extension activates automatically.

Available commands: KoraSafe: Run pre-launch check, KoraSafe: Register system, KoraSafe: Set API key. The extension never transmits prompt text or LLM response bodies. See the privacy policy for the full data inventory.

Security review, then Visual Studio Marketplace

v0.x ships through the Preview install track today. After the security review closes, the listing rolls out on the Visual Studio Marketplace. Pre-launch inline warnings for in-development AI code flow through the same extension. Email Contact-us@korasafe.ai to join the Preview cohort or to ask about enterprise pre-release access.
