Description

The color is wrong on the extends directive after the comma

/**
 * @extends Base<T, U>
 *///               ^ from here on
/**
 * @template T
 * @template U
 */
class Base {}

/**
 * @template T
 * @template U
 * @extends Base<T, U>
 */
class Derived extends Base {}

Research direction

Start with the TypeScript TextMate grammar rules responsible for JSDoc @extends directives and reproduce the example in an editor using the repository's grammar. Trace the generic parameter handling after the comma; done means the entire @extends Base<T, U> directive keeps the intended color.
