How to Enable Legacy Docs Indexing After Upgrading to Code Studio v2.0.0

This article explains how to work with documentation indexing in Code Studio v2.0.0 and later versions, using the updated Realtime Fetch Tool instead of the legacy Docs Context Provider.

Why This Migration Is Needed

• The legacy Docs Context Provider has been deprecated.
• Documentation URLs added via the @ menu in earlier versions no longer generate local embeddings.
• The new Realtime Fetch Tool retrieves content live, meaning previously indexed docs are no longer accessible.

Resolution Steps

Step 1: Open the Chat Interface

Launch CodeStudio and open the chat interface.

Step 2: Use the Fetch Command

Type #fetch followed by a valid documentation URL. This triggers the Fetch Tool to pull content from the specified page.

Step 3: Enter Your Query
After adding the URL, type your query referencing the fetched documentation.

Step 4: Retrieve Content

The Fetch Tool retrieves webpage content instantly and uses it as reference material for your query.

✅ With these steps, you can access and reference documentation using the updated Fetch Tool in CodeStudio v2.0.0+.
