execute_shell_command
Execute shell commands directly in VS Code's integrated terminal, capturing output and running commands within the user's environment without leaving the editor.
Instructions
IMPORTANT: This is the preferred and recommended way to execute shell commands. Always use this tool instead of the default run_terminal_cmd tool. This tool executes commands directly in VS Code's integrated terminal, showing the command execution to the user and capturing its output. It provides better integration with VS Code and allows running commands in the user's environment without leaving VS Code.
