SystemListenerContext

interface

The context a declared system listener runs with. Everything on the base context plus `ui`, so a listener can raise a notification or ask a question when the event warrants it.

ai: AiRuntimeApi
One off answers, agents, models, and sessions.
completedActionTraces: ReadonlySignal<readonly HostActionTrace[]>
Traces of actions that have finished, for mods that show or verify what the app did. Pair it with ContextBase.subscribeActionTraces to be told when a new one lands.
hooks: HostHookClient
Register interceptors from code.
logger: Logger
Your mod's log channel.
media: MediaApi
Screen, camera, and audio capture.
modId: `${string}.${string}` & $brand<'ModId'>
The id of the mod this handler belongs to.
permissions: PermissionClient
What the user has granted, denied, and is being asked.
system: SystemCapabilities
Host event sources you can listen to, and the catalog to discover them.
terminal: TerminalApi
Create and drive terminals.
ui: UiCapability
workbench: WorkbenchApi
The window shell: theme, layout, status bar, opening things.
workspace: WorkspaceApi
Folders, files, and configuration of the open workspace.
action: <K extends string>(id: K, input: ModularActionInput<K>, options?: HostActionClientRunOptions) => Promise<ModularActionResult<K>>
Dispatch an action. This is the only way a mod changes the app. Takes a host action id or a bare command id. Inside an event listener, prefer `occurrence.action(...)` so the causal link survives.
describeAction: (id: string) => ModularActionDescriptorDto | undefined
Look up one action's schema, or `undefined` if nothing owns that id.
describeEvent: (id: string) => ModularEventDescriptorDto | undefined
Look up one event's schema, or `undefined` if nothing declares that id.
emit: <TPayload>(descriptor: Event<TPayload>, payload: TPayload, options?: HostActionClientRunOptions) => Promise<EventEmitResult>
Publish one of your mod's own events to whoever is listening.
listActions: () => readonly ModularActionDescriptorDto[]
Every action available right now, including those other mods contribute.
listEvents: () => readonly ModularEventDescriptorDto[]
Every event you can subscribe to right now.
on: <TPayload>(descriptor: Event<TPayload>, listener: (event: EventOccurrence<TPayload>) => void | Promise<void>) => Disposable | <K extends ModularEventId>(id: K, listener: (event: EventOccurrence<ModularEventMap[K]>) => void | Promise<void>) => Disposable
Subscribe to an event, either your own declared one or a host event named by id. Dispose the result to stop listening.
state: <TValue>(declaration: StateDeclaration<TValue>) => OwnedState<TValue> | <TName extends 'editor.selection' | 'host.scope' | 'workbench.colorTheme' | 'workbench.layout' | 'workbench.windowState' | 'workspace.focusedEditorGroupTab'>(name: TName) => State<BuiltInStateValue<TName>>
Acquire a live state handle. Passing your own `state(...)` declaration gives an OwnedState you can write with `set`. Passing a built-in name gives a read-only State: host state changes only through actions.
subscribeActionTraces: (listener: () => void) => Disposable
Runs `listener` whenever a new trace lands in `completedActionTraces`.
