We have always supported it but it was undocumented. It shows a warning unknown key when added in vscode attach configuration.

If **pid** is omitted, the debugger will attempt to attach to the program by finding a process whose file name matches the file name from **program**. Setting this value to `${command:pickMyProcess}` will allow interactive process selection in the IDE.

 | **attachCommands**                | [string]    |     | LLDB commands that will be executed after **preRunCommands** which take place of the code that normally does the attach. The commands can create a new target and attach or launch it however desired. This allows custom launch and attach configurations. Core files can use `target create --core /path/to/core` to attach to core files.
