Select the Conda Code provider

The Conda Code environment manager and package manager use the same ID: jezdez.conda-code:conda.

Make Conda Code the default

Set both Python Environments defaults:

{
  "python-envs.defaultEnvManager": "jezdez.conda-code:conda",
  "python-envs.defaultPackageManager": "jezdez.conda-code:conda"
}

These settings control new environment and package operations. They do not hide other registered managers.

Select Conda Code for one project

Use Set Environment Manager and Set Package Manager on the project in the Python Environments view.

You can also configure the project entry directly:

{
  "python-envs.pythonProjects": [
    {
      "path": "/absolute/path/to/project",
      "envManager": "jezdez.conda-code:conda",
      "packageManager": "jezdez.conda-code:conda"
    }
  ]
}

Keep the path aligned with the project registered in Python Environments. Conda Code only discovers workspace manifests at registered Python project roots.

Confirm the selection

Open the Python Environments view and expand Conda Code. Run Conda Code: Refresh Environments after changing project registration or settings.
