This can happen when you try to use our commands in files with unsupported file extensions. VS Code tries to optimize which extensions it loads and activates at startup.

So if you try to use our commands through the command palette in, for example, a .json file then you might see this error because our extension has never been activated yet. But even if it did, we wouldn't be able to do anything with this command in a .json file.

We need to add when clauses in our manifest, here: https://github.com/statelyai/xstate-tools/blob/317b8f5baa7e4fa2ca4779ad6729251b1577daf1/apps/extension/client/package.json#L46-L57
