Welcome to **Cocoon**, a core component of the **Land Code Editor**. Cocoon is a
52-
specialized Node.js sidecar process designed to host and execute existing Visual
53-
Studio Code extensions. It provides a comprehensive, **Effect-TS native**
54-
environment that faithfully replicates the VS Code Extension Host API, allowing
55-
Land to leverage the mature VS Code extension ecosystem from day one.
56-
57-
Cocoon's primary goal is high compatibility with Node.js-based VS Code
58-
extensions. It communicates with the main Rust-based Land backend (`Mountain`)
59-
via **gRPC** (`Vine` protocol), ensuring a performant and strongly-typed IPC
60-
channel. Cocoon translates extension API calls into declarative Effects that are
61-
sent to `Mountain` for native execution.
51+
Your entire VS Code extension library works out of the box. Cocoon hosts
52+
Node.js extensions in a managed sidecar process that mirrors the full VS Code
53+
Extension Host API. Install an extension, activate it, and it works exactly as
54+
it does in VS Code.
55+
56+
Cocoon talks to Mountain over gRPC (Vine protocol). Extension API calls become
57+
typed Effects that Mountain executes natively. The result: extensions run at
58+
Rust speed for I/O operations while keeping full Node.js compatibility.
