I have a script which runs whenever I open the terminal (I put the command in .bashrc). Now when I open Visual Studio Code the script is obviously also executed in the internal terminal therein. I don‘t want this to happen. Is there any way to detect whether a terminal instance was started by VSCode so I can prevent the script from executing in that case? (I use bash)
Sorry if this is a dumb question, I am still fairly new to Linux and bash.

VS Code sets the standard environment variable TERM_PROGRAM in the terminal's environment to indicate what launched it, so you can solve your problem using this without needing to parse the process tree:
