the command line instructions here produced an installation of plugin: dev on MacOS.
Windows 10 cmd also shown there. Not sure whether this will fix the vs extension.

I think it is because you are behind a proxy. I had the same issue and I fixed it by connecting to a SSL VPN network.

A year later (I'd just see it)
bx plugin install dev -r bluemix

[cooach]

bx plugin install dev -r bluemix
Thanks goes #wmontes to fix. i coped the above all line and pasted into my Git command

Happened to me on CLI (outside vscode) when the command was executed as the root user. Interestingly, it works for non-root users but fails for a different reason. The fix mentioned in the comments solved the issue:

bx plugin install dev -r bluemix

This hints that this is not an extension issue but something fundamental to the CLI packages from ibmcloud.
