If the user types in a package name that does not match the exact case of actual package, NuGet and PyPI fail silently. This is because the HTTP metadata request accepts different casing but the extension code rejects it.
vscode-copilot-chat/src/extension/mcp/vscode-node/commands.ts
Lines 86 to 88 in adb9c16
This addresses the problem and adds the canonical casing and version (for an improved message) to the result. Here is the VS Code PR to use the new properties: microsoft/vscode#259081.
npm and Docker Hub are case sensitive so this is a non-issue. It will fail with "package not found" if the user gets the casing wrong.
Resolve microsoft/vscode#257675.
