Reverse engineered prompt

Build me an open source security research demo that shows how a trusted IDE extension could be abused in a lab setting.

I want one project that includes a small command and control server, a simple web dashboard, and example extensions for VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, and Eclipse. The demo should let a client extension check in, show basic system and IDE info, and send back visible activity from an authorized test workspace, like file events, editor activity, clipboard changes, and other lab safe telemetry. The dashboard should display connected clients, collected data, command results, and a simple timeline so I can see what happened.

Please make it easy to run with Docker and include a quick start guide, setup script, and clear documentation for how to use it only in an isolated lab. If anything needs current docs or APIs, look them up online first. Keep the implementation inspectable and educational, not hidden or production ready.
