BibLaTex 'multicite' commands (see biblatex docs, §3.9.3 Qualified Citation Lists) seem to be not (fully) supported. Specifically, there are no autocomplete snippets for a so-called multi-prenote and multi-postnote (notes which come before / after the whole list of citations).
✔️ While a multi-citation command
\parencites
, with the following syntax, is supported\parencites[pre][post]{bibid}[pre][post]{bibid}
❌ the version with multiprenote and/or multipostnote (which are in parentheses) seem not to be supported:
\parencites(multipre)(multipost)[pre][post]{bibid}[pre][post]{bibid}
This is the case with other multicite commands which all have the same syntax, such as
\footcites
,\textcites
,\smartcites
, and uppercase versions, etc. Since these are standard commands in biblatex, it seems reasonable they should be supported, but maybe this is intentional. Sorry if so.
The Solution*
Please provide a solution you would like to have.
- Autocomplete snippets (and other support? see below) for these commands.
Anything Else?
Add any other context about the feature request below.

I am not sure whether this is part of LaTeX-Workshop's features or not, but the more egregious problem that I notice when using these commands is that they do not seem to be supported by the latex syntax highlighter, and that this issue arises even without the parenthetical arguments (and also the spellchecking I am using, but that is an issue for another extension).
It's worth noting that the citation info on hover does work in all these cases.
