Open Finder Folders in VS Code with a Keystroke Using an Automator Quick Action
The article explains how to create a macOS Automator Quick Action that opens selected Finder folders in VS Code. The setup involves choosing Quick Action, setting the workflow to receive folders in Finder, and adding a Run Shell Script step that uses open -a with the app name. The author recommends this over the code command because it avoids PATH configuration issues and works on other machines with VS Code installed. Users can then right-click a folder to launch it or assign a keyboard shortcut in System Settings for one-keystroke access.
