If this plugin cannot be used, it needs to go through a proxy.
This is the VS Code proxy configuration. In Settings, find the setting.json file at the top right:
{
"claudeCode.preferredLocation": "panel",
"http.proxy": "http://127.0.0.1:7890",
"https.proxy": "http://127.0.0.1:7890",
"claudeCode.environmentVariables": [
{ "name": "HTTP_PROXY", "value": "http://127.0.0.1:7890" },
{ "name": "HTTPS_PROXY", "value": "http://127.0.0.1:7890" }
],
"security.workspace.trust.untrustedFiles": "open"
}This 403 Forbidden error is usually caused by:
Regional restrictions (you are not in a region supported by Anthropic) or login/authentication issues. The solution is to configure a proxy, log in again, or refresh the credentials. For the VS Code Claude Code extension, you need to configure the HTTP/HTTPS proxy and log in again to obtain shared credentials.
