What

An IDE is the code editor you work in. In some environments, Claude Code's status now shows an IDE line reading "Not connected. To install the Claude Code extension yourself, see", followed by where to find it. Before, nothing was shown here.

Why

If the editor extension is not connected, you get a pointer to install it yourself.
