Research direction
Read PEP 723 first to define the required inline script metadata behavior, then trace how the extension currently creates or manages built-in venv environments. No implementation files or tests are named in the issue, so identify the relevant entry points and existing coverage before proposing the scope. Done means built-in venv support handles the metadata described by the PEP.
