// tools/lsp/vscode-extension/extension.js — El Language VSCode extension
// tools/lsp/vscode-extension/extension.js
//
// Launches el-lsp as a child process (stdin/stdout Language Server Protocol)
// and connects VSCode's language client to it.
// El Language VSCode extension — Language Client
//
// Prerequisites:
// - el-lsp binary built at ../dist/el-lsp (run tools/lsp/build.sh first)
// - npm install (installs vscode-languageclient)
// Launches the el-lsp binary as a child process and connects VSCode's
// Language Client to it over stdin/stdout (JSON-RPC 2.0 + Content-Length).
//
// Install for development:
// 1. Open the vscode-extension/ folder in VSCode
// 2. Press F5 — Extension Development Host launches
// 3. Open any .el file — the LSP activates
// Capabilities provided by el-lsp:
// - textDocumentSync (full)
// - completionProvider — builtins + user fns + keywords
// - hoverProvider — signatures + descriptions
// - definitionProvider — go-to-def for user-defined fns
// - diagnostics — unclosed braces/parens, unterminated strings
//
// To package as a .vsix:
// Setup (development):
// 1. cd tools/lsp && ./build.sh (builds dist/el-lsp)
// 2. cd vscode-extension && npm install (installs vscode-languageclient)
// 3. Open vscode-extension/ in VSCode
// 4. Press F5 (launches Extension Development Host)
// 5. Open any .el file
//
// Package as .vsix:
// npm install -g @vscode/vsce
// cd tools/lsp/vscode-extension && vsce package
