Description

When installing your extension v0.15.0 on MacOS I received the following error. It does appear that the extension was installed per the CLI message and I can see it in the VSCode extensions list.

```bash
➜ ~ code --install-extension pkl-vscode-0.15.0.vsix
Installing extensions...

(Use `Electron --trace-deprecation ...` to show where the warning was created)
Extension 'pkl-vscode-0.15.0.vsix' was successfully installed.

Research direction

Reproduce the VS Code extension installation with `code --install-extension pkl-vscode-0.15.0.vsix` on the reported macOS and Apple M2 setup, then inspect the emitted deprecation warning. Determine whether the warning represents an installation failure or only diagnostic output; done means the installation behavior and expected CLI output are clearly established.
