What a VS Code verified publisher badge means, compared with Open VSX →
Use any LLM with any VS Code extension - OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Ollama & more. The open alternative to Copilot.
Daily readings on both stores, taken by us. As of 24 Sept 2026.
Each bar is one day’s change in the store’s own counter. Open VSX counts a download on every update, so a day includes updates by people who already had it. Days before 5 Sept are reconstructed from public archives rather than read by us.
Positions observed daily on both stores. Neither store publishes this, and the two run separate search engines over separate catalogues.
#7 on Open VSX for “anthropic”, #448 on Marketplace.
