Opens Plannotator plan reviews inside VS Code tabs instead of an external browser.

Features

• Automatically intercepts Plannotator browser opens and displays them in a VS Code panel
• Persists your Plannotator settings (identity, permissions, editor preferences) across sessions
• Auto-closes the panel when you approve or send feedback on a plan
• Works with Claude Code running in VS Code's integrated terminal
• Configurable via VS Code settings
• Manual URL opening via command palette

How It Works

When Plannotator opens a browser to show a plan review, this extension intercepts the request and opens it in a VS Code panel instead:

1. The extension injects a PLANNOTATOR_BROWSER environment variable into integrated terminals
2. When Plannotator opens a URL, the bundled router script sends it to the extension via a local HTTP server
3. The extension opens the URL in a custom WebviewPanel with an embedded iframe
4. A local reverse proxy handles cookie persistence (VS Code webview iframes don't support cookies natively) — settings are stored in VS Code's global state and restored transparently

Requirements

• Plannotator installed
• VS Code 1.85.0+

Configuration

Setting	Default	Description
plannotatorWebview.injectBrowser	true	Inject PLANNOTATOR_BROWSER env var into integrated terminals

Commands

• Plannotator: Open URL — Manually open a Plannotator URL in a panel

Troubleshooting

URL opens in external browser instead of VS Code

• Ensure plannotatorWebview.injectBrowser is enabled
• Open a new terminal after installing the extension (existing terminals won't have the env var)

Panel shows a blank page

• Check if Plannotator's server is still running
• Some network configurations may block localhost access from the webview
