VS Code Repo Color Tint

0•

Applies a distinct, deterministic background tint to VS Code workspaces so different project windows can be identified at a glance.

VS Code Repo Color Tint automates workspace differentiation by setting custom workbench colors within .vscode/settings.json based on a deterministic hash of the repository's git slug or manual HSL overrides. By tuning seven key UI surfaces—including editor background, sidebar, activity bar, panel, active tab, title bar, and status bar—it eliminates multi-window confusion while maintaining subtle, readable contrast for both dark and light themes. This skill is ideal for developers managing multiple microservices or repositories simultaneously who want automatic, persistent visual indicators without altering global VS Code theme settings.
