📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds support for a new experimental IDE "Bob": backend constants and registration, VSCode flavor and open configs, container setup routing, CLI mapping, frontend icon and supported-IDE wiring, and a UI toggle to enable the experimental IDE.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
IDE Configuration pkg/config/ide.go, pkg/ide/ideparse/parse.go	Added IDEBob constant and registered it in AllowedIDEs with DisplayName "IBM Bob", VSCode options, icon URL, Experimental: true, and primary group.
VSCode Flavor Support pkg/ide/vscode/vscode.go, pkg/ide/vscode/open.go	Added FlavorBob and flavorConfigs for Bob (.bobide-server, bobide-server) and an openConfigs entry (URL scheme bob, CLI bobide, macOS app path, remote-ssh extension).
Backend IDE Setup / CLI cmd/agent/container/setup.go, cmd/up.go	Routed IDEBob to VSCode-flavor code paths: container setup calls VSCode setup with vscode.FlavorBob; cmd/up maps IDEBob to FlavorBob for opening.
Frontend UI & Assets desktop/src/components/IDEIcon/IDEIcon.tsx, desktop/src/images/index.ts, desktop/src/types.ts	Added BobSvg export/import, included "bob" in SUPPORTED_IDES, and extended IDE icon mapping to resolve the Bob SVG.
Frontend Settings & Feature Gate desktop/src/contexts/SettingsContext/SettingsContext.tsx, desktop/src/useIDEs.ts, desktop/src/views/Settings/Settings.tsx	Added experimental_bob default setting (true), gated IDE listing to include Bob only when enabled, and added a Settings UI toggle labeled "Bob".

Let's update desktop/src/types.ts too

[skevetter]

todo: remove experimental from IDE flavors. I don't think this label adds much value as the IDEs are supported on a best-effort basis

another day, another AI text editor :)

LGTM!
