# How to Curate VS Code Remote Repositories
**Use Case**
JFrog Curation now supports curating **VS Code remote repositories** created using the **Artifactory AI Editor Extensions**.
This capability allows organizations to apply all standard curation controls, such as policies, conditions, and repository connections, to VS Code extensions fetched through supported remote repositories.
Workflow Steps
1. **Create a VS Code Remote Repository**
Before you can curate VS Code repositories, create a remote repository for AI Editor Extensions.
Follow the setup instructions in the [AI Editor Extension Repositories](https://jfrog.com/help/r/jfrog-artifactory-documentation/ai-editor-extension-repositories) documentation.
**When you create the repository, you must change the default URL to** [**https://open-vsx.org/vscode/gallery**](https://open-vsx.org/vscode/gallery)**.**
2. **Verify Environment Compatibility**
Ensure your environment meets the following requirements:
* **Artifactory Version:** 7.125.6 or later
* **Xray Version:** 3.131.15 or later
3. **Connect the Remote Repository in Curation**
In the JFrog Platform, go to **Administration > Curation > Remote Repositories**, and connect your newly created VS Code repository.
Once connected, it behaves like any other supported package type in Curation.
4. **Apply Curation Policies and Conditions**
* Create curation policies and add conditions as needed.
* The AIEditorExtensions package type supports **all condition types** available in Curation.
* Apply the relevant actions (e.g., Block, Allow, Notify) per policy.
5. **Monitor Audit Events**
After applying policies, audit events for VS Code packages will appear under **Application > Curation > Audit Events**.
Because the IDE plugin retries downloads multiple times, you may see several repeated block entries in the audit logs. This is expected behavior and not a system issue.
