will enable verbose logs from the runtime as well . do you know why runtime logs are enabled in this mode ?
do not fully recall why, but the original feature came in via I think we need to receive the output from the application here: Because we actually write back to the console from the app. We can probably change this to a different argument than if that is the only intent.
I think the real issue here is enabling the electron verbose logging, which is not good I think. Will see if I can fix it.
This is fixed for the most part, but certain logs may still appear: <img width="574" alt="Screenshot 2023-05-31 at 2 52 18 pm" src=""
Hm, could you try your steps again using VS Code insiders: what would cause these low level messages to appear in the output, do you know?
Chromium will always log to stderr for messages that are of severity level or higher ;l=613-630 when no explicit logging destination is provided. If we want to hide these messages, then a better way would be to separate the runtime logs to a separate file destination using and ignore them for mode.
could we pass in unless is used? I am not convinced these messages are helpful, unless maybe we explicitly ask for it.
ignores stderr unless is used.
Can be verified with the build tomorrow (Friday) with the additional changes.

Now when I run I get no output at all. I get some output with . Is that the expected behavior?
you should either a message saying you need to open a window to use this command, or something like this: <img width="887" alt="Screenshot 2023-06-01 at 2 17 52 pm" src=""
I'm on Windows and I do not see this message if the app was launched from the taskbar, but I do see this message after launching with the CLI

Uh, I see this error on mac. Then it leaves a new insiders app icon open

the next insiders should include the required changes for
