Extra_scripts seems to be executed when I change GitHub branches in VSCode

This works. My problem is, that with every change of a branch or with the startup of VSCode the extra_scripts seems to be executed. But what I try to achieve is, that this script will be executed during the build process only.

Yes. Your extra_script could be adding compile / linker settings, so PlatformIO of course executes it when the project is loaded or the platformio.ini itself is changed.

You can determine whether you are in an active build or not as shown in e.g.

MarlinFirmware/Marlin/blob/030559bf7f0287150549dc1a9876ca2bc7de1617/buildroot/share/PlatformIO/scripts/pioutil.py#L5-L10
