  2. Remote Policy Check: Connects to your ABS Cloud instance to validate code against enterprise policies.
  3. Governance Sidebar: View risk scores, recent events, and active policies.

Installation

  1. Open VS Code Extensions (Ctrl+Shift+X).
  2. Search for ABS Kernel.
  3. Install the extension by OConnector.

Configuration

In .vscode/settings.json:
{
  "abs.apiUrl": "https://api.abscore.app",
  "abs.apiKey": "sk-..."
}
