It's not a theme here, it's an extension.

    I think that's how themes are distributed for VSCode, right?
    With VSCode, everything is an extension.
    But the vscode marketplace seems to have filters for themes, so there must be some way to differentiate them.

    I think extensions need a permissions system

    You can install themes directly from the theme selector.
