Description
Validations
- I believe this is a way to improve. I'll try to join the Continue Discord for questions
- I'm not able to find an open issue that requests the same enhancement
Problem
Continue not accessible to the Visual Studio C#/.NET community (GitHub Copilot is)
Solution
Seems to require a full rework, different stack than Visual Studio Code

Research direction
Start with the linked Visual Studio extension development guide and compare its requirements with Continue's existing Visual Studio Code extension. The issue provides no repository files or tests to begin from, so clarify the extension scope, supported capabilities, and acceptance criteria with the maintainers before implementation.
