Language Server Protocol (LSP)

Knows basic Language Server Protocol concepts for compiler engineering and can apply them in common tasks. Uses standard tools and follows established team practices. Understands when and why this approach is used.

Understands LSP message flow between client and server. Implements basic text document synchronization and simple completion providers following existing server patterns.

Understands Language Server Protocol basics and JSON-RPC communication. Sets up development environments with LSP support and debugs simple protocol message exchanges.

Confidently applies Language Server Protocol for compiler engineering in non-standard tasks. Independently selects optimal approach and tools. Analyzes trade-offs and suggests improvements to existing solutions.

Implements LSP features including go-to-definition, references, hover info, and diagnostics. Builds incremental document parsing for responsive editor feedback with efficient change tracking.

Implements LSP handlers for code navigation and symbol resolution. Integrates language server with compiler front-end to provide real-time error reporting and semantic token highlighting.
