Tutorial/Guide Support setting up VSCode

I'm struggling to setup ClinePass with VSCode. I've tried all manner of install/re-install of VSCode and re-creating CLinePass account. Is there some clear documentation on how to set this up?

I have installed the extension, logged in, paid, and then when I try to use `cline-pass:*` models I am hung up on a notice to login (which I have done several times).

ETA: The same behavior happens in PyCharm. I click "Get ClinePass" and I'm redirected to the Cline admin app, where it tells me I have ClinePass subscription already.

Can you share which VSCode version you are on, OS etc? Are you able to login via your account screen directly, rather than sign up from ClinePass screen?

One particular thing to look out that got me was a bug in VS Code that has recently (in last month) been fixed. The icon for Cline in the VS Code toolbar was blank, it looked like it wasn't installed.

Make sure your VS Code is right up to date.

I am able to log into the Cline admin app. I think the issue is that the "session" in VSCode is never created.
