Please do not mention people all in one post otherwise they will not help you.

import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.UsesServices;
import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.androidmanifest.ActionElement;
import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.androidmanifest.IntentFilterElement;
import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.androidmanifest.ServiceElement;

@UsesServices(services = {
  @ServiceElement(
    name = "{packageName}.MyService",
    permission = "android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE",
    intentFilters = {
      @IntentFilterElement(
        actionElements = {
          @ActionElement(name = "android.app.Service")
        }
      )
    }
  )
})

Final solution

Import missing classes directly.

import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.UsesServices;
import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.androidmanifest.ActionElement;
import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.androidmanifest.IntentFilterElement;
import com.google.appinventor.components.annotations.androidmanifest.ServiceElement;

Don’t forget to replace {packageName} with your extensions package name.

@hammerhai Can you please give me a very simple code of extension which uses Services?
I am not understanding how to work with Services.

it looks like Kodular stil did not implement the new annotations…

therefore that will only work in App Inventor currently until Kodular update their system…
