continue: Extension does not start

Before submitting your bug report

• I believe this is a bug. I’ll try to join the Continue Discord for questions
• I’m not able to find an open issue that reports the same bug
• I’ve seen the troubleshooting guide on the Continue Docs

Relevant environment info

- OS: Manjaro 6.4.3
- Continue: 0.0.409
- Python: 3.11.5 (and 3.10.12)
- IDE: Code OSS 1.82.0

Description

Extension prompts the “Continue Server Starting” loading screen and this loading screen keeps on forever.

It seems like the server is starting as expected (tried running it manually and the server starts without issues). It worked for me on a previous version (I think in August but I am not really sure, I reinstalled my OS in between and I am not sure if I used Continue after) but I tried and older version earlier and I have the same issue.

I noticed that the server keeps running after VSCode is closed until I reopen VSCode. Then the process is killed and a new server is started. After deleting the .continue folder I also noticed that the config.py and other files in this folder are missing.

To reproduce

1. Install Continue extension
2. Swap to Continue extension in the side bar
