This commit introduces integration between the Snyk Security extension and the Google Gemini Code Assist extension, enabling users to trigger workspace scans directly from the Gemini chat interface. Key changes: - **MCP Server Communication:** The Snyk Language Server (LS) now communicates the MCP server URL which triggers connecting to the Gemini Code Assist extension. - **Gemini Chat Handler:** A new chat handler is registered with Gemini, which is triggered when the user's chat message includes `/scan`. - **Workspace Scan Execution:** The chat handler executes the `snyk.executeMCPToolCall` command, performing a Snyk workspace scan. - **Result Delivery:** The scan results are formatted as markdown and sent back to Gemini for display to the user. - **Command Registration:** The `/scan` command is added to the Gemini command list for discoverability. - **Error handling:** A try catch was added to avoid crashing if there is an error. - **Listener placement:** Moved the registration of the listeners to be before the Language Server is started. This feature allows users to perform Snyk security scans in a more conversational and integrated manner within their development workflow.
**Explanation:** The change is very simple: * **`let vscode = acquireVsCodeApi();`** is changed to **`const vscode = acquireVsCodeApi();`** **Why this change is made:** The original code used `let` to declare the `vscode` variable. However, the `acquireVsCodeApi()` function is meant to be called once, and the returned object (the VS Code API) is intended to be a singleton that's used throughout the script's lifecycle. It's never reassigned. Using `const` is better practice here because: 1. **Immutability:** It explicitly states that the `vscode` variable will not be reassigned after initialization. This makes the code easier to reason about and helps prevent accidental modification of the API object. 2. **Readability:** `const` clearly communicates the intent that `vscode` is a constant reference to the VS Code API. 3. **Strictness:** it ensures the variable is not accidentally reassigned later, making it safer. In essence, this is a minor improvement for code clarity, maintainability, and safety. It does not change the functionality.
