export function extractSearchToken(completionToken: {
    token: string;
    isQuoted?: boolean;
  }): string {
    if (completionToken.isQuoted) {
      // Remove @" prefix and optional closing "
      return completionToken.token.slice(2).replace(/"$/, '');
    } else if (completionToken.token.startsWith('@')) {
      return completionToken.token.substring(1);
    } else {
      return completionToken.token;
    }
  }

Why even use else if with return...
