Sorry for the delaaaaaay, I haven't spent much time working recently.

To have detected tasks such as npm xxx displayed in the task quick-open, you will need to install VS Code extensions as Theia plugins. Take npm install for example, since it is detected by the npm extension, installing npm extension in Theia is needed.

Unfortunately at the this moment we don't have a tool or a script that automates this process. You will need to go through the conversations and links in
