Most probably related to eclipse/openvsx#436.

Further references:

• Ignore includeAllVersions if extensionVersion is specified. eclipse/openvsx#421
• Set latest version, whether it's a pre-release or not eclipse/openvsx#419
• Please support publishing pre-releases #386 eclipse/openvsx#410
  • Prerelease extensions are also showing the Preview badge eclipse/openvsx#423

Oh wow, nice find! Subscribing to the eclipse issue you opened.

For the time being, it is best to pin the version of this extension, e.g. code-server --install-extension ms-toolsai.jupyter@2022.2.1010641114.
ℹ️ See EclipseFdn/publish-extensions#569 (comment) ff.

Not an issue of code-server.

It seems to be an issue of code-server.

Executing

code-server --install-extension ms-toolsai.jupyter

results in

Installing extensions...
Installing extension 'ms-toolsai.jupyter'...
Extension 'ms-toolsai.jupyter' v2022.3.1000901801 was successfully installed.

But v2022.3.1000901801 of ms-toolsai.jupyter is neither compatible with code-server 4.2.0 (Code 1.64.2) nor code-server 4.3.0 (Code 1.65.2):

@benz0li thank you for the detailed notes/logs! So the extension installs even when it shouldn't. Does it show up in the Extensions panel and does it work?
