“Flutter Code extension not installed” but it'

Have been using Flutter with VSCode on Mac for months without issues, but suddenly flutter doctor produces this:

! Doctor found issues in 1 category.

I can confirm that flutter is installed, and nothing has changed since I started using it. Additionally, before I updated flutter (today), flutter doctor read, under VSCode, as:

[!] VS Code (version 1.24.1)
• VS Code at /Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents
• Dart Code extension not installed; install from
  https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Dart-Code.dart-code

However, post-upgrade that seems the inability to find dart might have been fixed.

There is a post from a few days ago here that indicates flutter doctor may just be inaccurate for the time being, so I tried to run the project, and got the following error stack:

Any thoughts on this?

There was a change in VSCode that broke extensions detection. It's safe to ignore this warning.

See the full comment of Danny Tuppeny, about this issue here.

For the stacktrace there are two things:
