Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by investigating the Command Palette area using the reproduction report: RAM usage continues to increase even after restarting the PC. The payload names no source files, tests, or entry points and provides no bug report ZIP, so the affected code path and a verifiable completion condition still need to be established.
