How do I disable Code Whisperer in VS Code?

Question

I have the AWS Toolkit v1.74.0 installed in VS Code, and it seems to have Code Whisperer enabled by default.  I don't want to use it and would like to disable it entirely, but I can't find a way to do this without disabling the entire extension.

Hi

You can either pause the code whisperer suggestions and re-enable it when required or completely sign out of code whisperer.

This can be done by going to the AWS Toolkit plugin and in the Developer Tools section either pausing the code whisperer suggestions or completely disconnecting from the service.

AWS Toolkit should be installed as a VScode extension, so I think disabling the extension will stop CodeWhisperer.  
You can disable it using the method described in this document.

> If you don't want to permanently remove an extension, you can instead temporarily disable the extension by clicking the gear button at the right of an extension entry. You can disable an extension globally or just for your current Workspace. You will be prompted to reload VS Code after you disable an extension.

> Extensions remain disabled for all VS Code sessions until you re-enable them
