Implements the LSP capability seam RFC as three packages: dsh-lsp (the ctx.lsp interface — provider registry by branded id + exclusive extension mapping, per-query order-independent selection, closed request/result vocabulary, LspError taxonomy), dsh-lsp-local (a generic stdio language-server provider — Content-Length JSON-RPC framing, per-(provider, workspace) process single-flight, transient didOpen/query/didClose, an abortable per-instance queue, UTF-16 negotiation, host-namespace source reads outside ctx.fs, and bounded shutdown/kill teardown), and dsh-tool-lsp (the model-facing lsp tool — four operations, one-based UTF-16 cursor conversion, workspace-grouped location rendering, hover capping, a required session workspace, and a timeout budget). Why: an agent had text search and file reads but no way to identify a program symbol — follow an alias, connect an interface to implementations, or read an inferred type — before changing code. Splitting model contract, seam, and local subprocess behavior keeps the four semantic queries stable across future remote or sandbox-native providers without leaking a JSON-RPC escape hatch.

lsp/ - LSP capability family
The language-server capability seam: an abstract LSP interface, a generic stdio provider, and the model-facing lsp tool. All product packages.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
lsp/ |
Abstract LSP seam (provider registry by branded id + extension mapping, per-query selection, vocabulary, LspError) |
ctx.lsp |
lsp-local/ |
Generic stdio language-server provider (spawn, JSON-RPC, transient-open queries) | (registers on ctx.lsp) |
tool-lsp/ |
Model-facing lsp tool (four operations, one-based UTF-16 cursor coordinates) |
(registers on ctx.tools) |
The interface lives at lsp/lsp/. The seam exposes exactly four semantic operations — definition, references, implementation, hover — and no generic JSON-RPC escape hatch, so a provider swap does not change how the model asks for navigation and no protocol payload or unreviewed mutation reaches the model contract. Providers register capabilities, not tools; tool-lsp is the only owner of the model-facing name, schema, prompt guidance, and presentation.
See the LSP capability seam RFC for the design rationale, including why documents open transiently per query, why the local host reads through Node APIs rather than ctx.fs, and why extension ownership is exclusive within one runtime.
