No one I know uses the built in VSCode extensions anymore. It's all TUIs now. You can use Opencode as a TUI now for local.

Seconding the TUI usage. Opencode, codex, and pi are ones that I have / my friends have had success with using locally. I mostly use pi. It feels like the most "boring tool that just does its job" out of the big options.
