Q: Is there a way from my project to programmatically detect that it is in vscode

I have a situation where a Gradle plugin I'm developing needs to take conditional actions depending on whether or not the project in which my Gradle plugin is applied, is currently being edited inside vscode.

I'm wondering if there might be someway for any random Java code that is part of a project, to programmatically detect that the project is currently opened in vscode.

Maybe something like querying the hierarchy of class loaders to see if some class that is only ever loaded by vscode-java is present? Or maybe there is something like a .lock file somewhere that would only exist if vscode-java is editing a specific project? Anything like that?

I realize I could have the code look in the root folder to see if a .vscode folder is there — or something along those lines. But I very often open projects in all of the different Java IDEs at different times. So although the project might be open in IntelliJ at any given time, it would be a false positive in the IntelliJ scenario when the detection code finds a .vscode folder from the previous times I might have edited the project in vscode.
