Component fixtures render isolated UI components for visual screenshot testing via the component explorer. Fixtures live in src/vs/workbench/test/browser/componentFixtures/ and are auto-discovered by the Vite dev server using the glob src//.fixture.ts.

Use tools mcpcomponent-exp to list and screenshot fixtures. If you cannot see these tools, inform the user to them on.
