fix(vscode): add context to settings descriptions (Share Mode, Temperature, and more) by kilo-code-bot[bot] · Pull Request #11529 · Kilo-Org/kilocode

kilo-code-bot · 2026-06-22T09:43:08Z

Summary

Addresses the missing context in VS Code extension settings highlighted in #7668.

Share Mode: expanded from "How session sharing behaves" to a clear explanation of Manual/Auto/Disabled options
Temperature: expanded from "Sampling temperature (0-2)" to a plain-language description of what temperature controls and when to change it
Top P: similar improvement explaining nucleus sampling in user-friendly terms
Formatter, LSP, Batch Tool, Continue on Deny, Max Steps: all improved with more actionable descriptions
package.json contributes.configuration: added markdownDescription (with Markdown formatting) to settings that were confusing — model.providerID, model.modelID, autocomplete.enableSmartInlineTaskKeybinding, autocomplete.enableChatAutocomplete, and agentWorkStyle
All 19 locale files updated with English placeholder text so non-English users also get descriptive context until translators provide localized versions

WARNING: Replacing translated setting help with English paragraphs regresses the localized UI

This locale previously had translated descriptions for these settings. This change replaces them with English prose for Share Mode, Formatter, LSP, Batch Tool, Continue on Deny, Temperature, Top P, and Max Steps, so users who selected this language now get a mixed-language settings screen. It would be safer to keep the existing localized copy until translated replacements are available.
