add a save item to vscode editor context menu - visual-studio-code

Question

Vscode noob here, trying to get a save item in the editor context menu. I've got as far as this:
{
"name": "vsContextSave",
"displayName": "vsContextSave",
"description": "add save item to editor context menu",
"version": "0.0.0",
"publisher": "njamescouk",
"repository": {
"type": "git",
"url": ""
},
"license": "MIT License",
"engines": {
"vscode": "^1.40.0"
},
"contributes": {
"menus": {
"editor/context": [
{
"command": "workbench.action.files.save",
"group": "9_cutcopypaste",
"when": "editorTextFocus"
}
]
}
},
"__metadata": {}
}
When wrapped up in a directory in the .vscode\extensions directory vscode sees it and vsContextSave shows up in the extension list and is enabled. However I don't see a save item in the context menu.
edit:
I've inserted an activation event just before the metadata statement, but apparently I need a main module with an activate() function in it.
"activation Events": ["onStartupFinished"],

these two files get you find, find file and save as context menu items in the editor.
extension.js:
no idea what this does but seems to be necessary
'use strict';
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
const vscode = require("vscode");
function activate(context) {
};
package.json:
{
"name": "mainContext",
"displayName": "mainContext",
"description": "add various items to editor context menu",
"version": "0.0.0",
"publisher": "njamescouk",
"repository": {
"type": "git",
"url": ""
},
"license": "MIT License",
"engines": {
"vscode": "^1.40.0"
},
"main": "./extension.js",
"contributes": {
"menus": {
"editor/context": [
{
"command": "workbench.action.files.save",
"group": "9_cutcopypaste",
"when": "editorTextFocus"
},
{
"command": "actions.find",
"group": "9_cutcopypaste",
"when": "editorTextFocus"
},
{
"command": "workbench.action.quickOpen",
"group": "9_cutcopypaste",
"when": "editorTextFocus"
}
]
},
"commands": [
{
"title": "Save",
"command": "workbench.action.files.save"
},
{
"title": "Find",
"command": "actions.find"
},
{

"command": "workbench.action.quickOpen"
}
]
},
"activationEvents": [
"onStartupFinished"
],
"__metadata": {}
}
