Small tweaks to a VSCode theme can be made directly to the settings.json or {workspace}.workspace.code-workspace file.

Developer: Inspect TM Scopes. - place the cursor on the token of interest to determine the textmate scopes being applied.
- Add a new highlighting rule for that specific scope to
settings.json. This goes inside:
“editor.tokenColorCustomizations”: { “textMateRules”: [
]},
Editing VS Code color settings

Developer: Generate Color Theme From Current Settings - Edit specific settings by adding the color customization snippet to your JSON settings:
{
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"activityBar.background": "#00AA00"
}
}
