New syntax causes Raspberry Pi 4 to crash when launching Visual Code add-on

[tyron]

The problem

Recently I started seeing many more crashes on my Home Assistant installation running on a Raspberry Pi 4. It wasn't an issue until recent months, so I'd say it got worse around 2024.08 release. From a hunch, it seems to happen more when I'm interacting with Visual Studio add-on.

Initially I logged as a OS bug, but I eventually found out the bug reported in Visual Studio add-on repo.

It seems like the syntax check is causing VSC to hang and crash the entire RPi4. After I went through each of my automations and hit "save" again (forcing a conversion to the new format), my RPi4 isn't crashing anymore with a similar usage. Considering the impact of the problem, can you evaluate ways to automate the conversion of old to new syntax (especially if you have plans on more conversions)?
