Yeah, I posted here because I was completely blindsided when my claude asked if I wanted to install a go lsp. I didnt even know that was a thing. A little googling led to this changelog from 3 days ago, but I was surprised I hadnt seen any previous mentions of this online (from either creators, anthropic, or HN posts).

I am disabling it for now since my flow is fine at the moment, I'll let others validate the usefulness first.

I got an unexpected offer to install the LSP plugin for swift-lsp at 6:30pm pst on 12/19pm and again yesterday afternoon the text reads:

LSP Plugin Recommendation

LSP provides code intelligence like go-to-definition and error checking

Plugin: swift-lsp

Swift language server (SourceKit-LSP) for code intelligence Triggered by: •swift files

Would you like to install this LSP plugin? › 1. Yes, install swift-lsp 2. No, not now 3. Never for swift-lsp 4. Disable all LSP recommendations

I had a conversation with Claude code 2 weeks ago where it mentioned early support for LSP had been added into Claude code. Have been working on a LSP for a custom language since then.
