What problem does it solve?

vscode path handling can become inconsistent across platforms when mixing node:path utilities with filesystem manipulations. This skill guides you to prefer vscode-uri URIs and the Utils API to normalize path handling in TypeScript projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Prefer vscode-uri Utils for path operations (join, basename, dirname, extname) over node:path to ensure cross-platform consistency.
  • Use URI↔path conversions via FsService: toUri(filePath) and uriToPath(uri) for seamless interop between URIs and paths.
  • Raw path to URI: use URI.file(path) or toUri for memfs in web contexts to maintain consistent access patterns.
  • Align /src imports and path joins with vscode-uri-based utilities to reduce platform-specific bugs and improve code portability.

Quick Start

Configure your project to replace node:path with vscode-uri Utils for all /src path operations.
