Problem:
The eol_offset used to decode multiline semantic tokens is computed as
vim.bo.fileformat[bufnr] == 'dos' and 2 or 1
which indexes the option value rather than the buffer, so it is never
"dos" and the offset is always 1. A token that crosses a line boundary
in a 'fileformat' of "dos" is then decoded one code unit short per line
ending, and the highlight extends past the end of the token.
Solution:
Read the option with the buffer-scoped form, vim.bo[bufnr].fileformat.
The existing multiline test covers both formats now. Its token length of
82 counts the line endings it spans, so the same token reaches four
characters less far once the buffer is "dos".

Problem:
vim.lsp.util.show_document() can fail to load the target buffer, most
visibly with E325 when another process owns the file's swapfile and the
user declines to open it. The Vim error escapes show_document() and
surfaces inside whichever LSP handler called it, instead of being
reported as a failure to show the document.
Solution:
Load the buffer up front with vim.fn.bufload(), before any of that
state is touched, and report the error instead of raising.

Problem: LuaLS struggles with the generics used in Nvim's runtime,
requiring broad diagnostic suppressions. Indexing is also slow.
Solution: Use EmmyLua for type checks in the build and CI. It offers
more sophisticated type checking, substantially better support for
generics, and much better flow analysis.
Correct the affected annotations. Use `@internal`, supported directly by
EmmyLua, instead of `@nodoc` for shared internal declarations, and
support it in the help parser.

Problem:
dynamicRegistration is declared false, and completionProvider is read
from server_capabilities only.
Solution:
Declare it, and prefer registerOptions per field.
Problem:
An explicitly passed `range` to `vim.lsp.buf.format()` in linewise
visual mode is silently replaced by the selection.
Solution:
Parenthesise the mode check.
Problem:
Folding range markers are overwritten while ranges are evaluated. A range ending on a row can hide another range starting there, and multiple nested ranges ending together emit only the innermost ending level.
Solution:
Track starts and the number of ends per row before emitting markers. Prefer starts on shared boundary rows and use the outermost level when nested ranges end together.
AI-assisted
Problem:
A blank line before the Content-Length header makes header parsing
fail with "Content-Length not found in header". An LF in the 'name'
state falls through to the 'invalid' state, which only return to
'name' at the *next* LF. That LF terminates the next line, so the
line with Content-Length is swallowed.
The same issue happens when a junk line is a partial match of the
header name (e.g. "Cont\nContent-Length: ...").
Solution:
When seeing an LF in the 'name' state, reset the cursor and stay in
'name' rather than entering 'invalid'.
Problem:
`Completor:accept()` applies the item against the range the server
answered with. Characters typed after the request but before accepting
lie inside neither that range nor the replacement, so they are left
behind by the insertion: typing `a` after `foob` and accepting `foobar`
within the 200 ms debounce yields `foobara`.
Solution:
Grow the item's range over the characters typed since the request, so
that `accept()` replaces them. Only while the candidate still matches,
decided by the longest common prefix `show()` already computes, so input
that contradicts it is left alone. Snippet items are unaffected, since
`accept()` ignores the range for them.
Problem:
`Completor:accept()` hands the item's range straight to
`nvim_buf_set_text()`. That range is resolved when the response arrives,
so text deleted before accepting (backspacing within the 200 ms
debounce) leaves the range end past what is left of the line, and the
accept aborts with `Invalid 'end_col': out of range`.
18d6436 fixed the same staleness in `Completor:show()`, which drops an
item once its range *start* falls outside the buffer. That guard does
not cover the range end, and `accept()` was never given one, so this is
a hole left by that fix rather than a regression of it.
Solution:
Clamp the end of the range to the end of the line before writing. The
start needs no clamp: `show()` dropped the item one event loop tick
earlier if it had gone out of range.
Problem:
One item with an edit range before the word boundary changes the start
column for all items. For tsserver `str.`, completing `str.char` can
become `strcharAt` and break filtering.
Solution:
Prepend the missing text and filter on it.
Problem:
CTRL-] via lsp tagfunc passes URI paths through :tag, which expands
\$VAR, so files like people_.\$personId.tsx fail with E429.
Solution:
fnameescape() the filename in tag items so \$ is treated as literal.
Problem:
Empty string is falsy, so the spec's label fallback applies, but there only checks
for nil. An empty filterText drops the item, an empty sortText sorts it
first, and an empty insertText leaves the word empty.
Solution:
Treat empty string as unset.
`opts.plain=true` does not expand tildes in addition to environment
variables, unlike `opts.expand_env=false`.
`opts.expand_env=false` is soft-deprecated.
Problem:
Client:_get_registrations() errors if a documentSelector pattern is not
a valid glob (e.g. "**/**.dart" from dartls). The error discards
already-matched registrations and propagates to supports_method() and
the client/registerCapability handler, disabling capabilities unrelated
to the offending pattern.
Solution:
Skip invalid globs. Treat them as non-matching, and log once per client.
(Similar approach was taken for filewatcher globs: 4d9e5acfb5)
Problem:
Cannot assign Lua functions/closures to "func" ('completefunc',
'tagfun', …) or "expr" ('foldexpr', 'indentexpr', …) options.
Solution:
- Store "func"/"expr" options as `Callback` instead of string.
- Delete oceans of copy-pasted code.
- BREAKING: LuaRef returned via RPC/Vimscript is now represented as
`"<Lua N: file:line>"` (like what `:map` shows) instead of `nil`.
- Note: `man.vim` still uses `v:lua` string, bc it's a vimscript ftplugin.

Problem:
commit_chars_str() reads a 0x80-0xBF byte as a 2-byte lead, so
"\xA9x" makes "x" a commit character. nvim_get_hl() returns
a dict, so `#` on it is 0 whether or not the group exists
Solution:
use vim.str_utf_end() and drop entries that are not one whole
character. use next check dict length.
Changes:
- Removed the blank line before the first healthcheck header.
- Fixed a bug where the entire "Terminal" section of `vim.health` would
not appear if the `infocmp` executable was not found.
- Fixed a typo in `vim.lsp` when displaying the LSP log level.
Problem:
on_attach() calls refresh(), but there is no guarantee the attached
buffer is the current buffer. This can make linked editing request
handling assume the wrong window.
Solution:
Call refresh() only if the current buffer is attached. This keeps the
initial highlighting behavior while avoiding making incorrect request.
Problem:
LSP hover erroneously drops blank lines before a 4-space-indented
codeblock, which is not valid Markdown. This causes incorrect parsing
and wrong display.
Solution:
Fix `split_lines` so that it doesn't drop the blank line just before
a 4-space-indented codeblock.

Problem:
A floating preview window (hover, signature help) converted to a normal
window (e.g. with CTRL-W_H or nvim_win_set_config()) is still closed by
the open_floating_preview() autocommands, and a later preview may focus
or close it as if it were still a float.
Solution:
When the preview window is no longer floating, remove its auto-close
autocommands and stop tracking it as the buffer's floating preview.
Closes#36659
Problem: values from completionList.itemDefaults always replace the
item's own commitCharacters and data. Since 3.18 a server can ask for
them to be merged instead.
Solution: Handle CompletionList.applyKind and advertise applyKindSupport.
Drop itemDefaults once folded into the items: get_items() runs twice on
the same result and a Merge isn't idempotent.

Problem: LSP completion commitCharacters are not handled. Typing a
commit character (e.g. `.`, `(`, `;`) while a completion item is
selected does not accept the item first.
Solution: Store commit characters as a flat string in complete-items.
Check it before completion stops, accept the match and let
the character be inserted normally.
Problem: Every LSP capability that sends a request on a document change
to update its state was using its own buffer-local autocmd to do so.
That means there is a separate autocmd per buffer per active
capability/feature, and the actual code inside the autocmd callback was
virtually identical. The same problem occurred for capabilities that had
components to draw on the screen that had their own decoration providers.
Solution: Introduce a central `LspNotify` autocmd and decoration
provider in the capability module itself. New base class methods
`on_close` and `on_change` that take a client_id have been provided, for
`didClose` and `didOpen`/`didChange` notifications respectively. New
base class method `on_win` that takes topline and botline has been
provided to add extmarks or perform other work when lines of a buffer
are being drawn.
The autocmd callback loops through each active capability instance for
the buffer and calls a corresponding method with the triggering
client_id if it is currently attached to the buffer that triggered the
autocmd. The decoration provider just calls on_win for all active
capabilities on the buffer.
This slightly tweaks folding range to make use of these new client-id
specific callbacks.
Problem
The current list of properties for inlay hint resolve support includes a
non-existent "location". This field should be "label.location" according
to the specification. Tooltips and commands for inlay hint "parts"
aren't advertised as being resolvable.
Solution
Remove "location" and add "label.location", "label.tooltip", and
"label.command".
Closes#40740
Problem:
Malformed server responses with `null` (vim.NIL) values, do not show
clear error messages.
Solution:
Assert two known, specific cases, to avoid user confusion.
Problem: when an LS client detaches from the buffer, only pull diagnostics
are cleared via capability framework. Push diagnostics remain stuck even
when client stops/restarts.
Solution: clear push diagnostics on client detach.
ref #33864
When a server supports both document and workspace pull diagnostics,
`on_refresh` only dispatched a `workspace/diagnostic` request. The
workspace response handler skips buffers with `pull_kind == "document"`
(i.e. all buffers opened by the user), so their diagnostics went stale
until the next `didChange` or `didOpen` event.
Change `on_refresh` to always refresh document-pull buffers via
`textDocument/diagnostic`, regardless of whether the server also
supports workspace diagnostics. This ensures that opened buffers
see updated diagnostics (e.g. after a save triggers an external
tool like PHPStan) without requiring the user to re-enter insert
mode.
Problem: The codelens LSP module was using its own raw buffer events and
its own debounce mechanism for refreshing code lens in attached buffers.
Solution: Switch the module to using the LspNotify autocmd events.
LspNotify fires just after document versions are synced with the server
and provides a built in debounce mechanism for changes.
Additionally, this fixes some bugs with the previous implementation:
1. The workspace/codeLens/refresh handler re-requested codelens for all
buffers but when the response came back, it forced an extra redraw
after clearing the work the handler had just done.
2. Document synchronization was reworked to be more resilient to
multiple clients providing codelens for a single buffer. The latest
document version is now separately tracked per client (and per
client's lenses per row) instead of for the buffer as a whole. This
allows the on_win() function to properly redraw all codelens even
when different clients' responses for a particular document version
come back at different times.
Problem:
Inlay hints used separate global and per-buffer bufstates tables and
bespoke global autocmds for managing the inlay hint state across buffers
and clients, duplicating the lifecycle logic already provided by the
Capability framework. This caused inconsistencies in how client state
was handled and inlay hint state lifecycle was managed compared to other
LSP features.
Solution:
Replace the ad-hoc bufstate tracking and global autocmds in
vim.lsp.inlay_hint with a proper InlayHint subclass of Capability.
This also refactors the way inlay hint state is managed and fixes bugs I
found while doing this:
1. For each line with inlay hints, the list of the hints along with
whether they have been applied is stored in a current result on the
client state. This allows the on_win decorator to clear all inlay
hints for an old document version once, and then re-add the new
version's hints line-by-line as they are drawn to the screen,
modeling the semantic tokens module.
2. It fixes problems with mixing results from multiple clients attached
to the buffer by fully moving each client's state to its own table.
Previously, only the most recent document version used to populate a
line's inlay hints was stored, but there was no distinction for which
client the hints may have come from. (Fixes#36318)
3. It fixes the workspace/inlayHint/refresh server->client notification
behavior. Previously it would only re-request inlay hints for buffers
currently displayed in a window but would not invalidate them in
non-displayed buffers (or provide any mechanism for those buffers to
re-request at a later time). Model semantic token module here again
by invalidating all buffers, and adding a BufWinEnter autocmd to
refresh hints.
4. Add a mechanism to cancel in-flight requests if a new request for a
newer document version is made before the last one returned
5. Handle stale results by simply dropping them.
Ref #6645
Problem:
When a window is resized it takes space from the window right/below first,
and only falls back to the window left/above when there is no more room.
Sometimes a user wants the space to come from a specific direction.
Solution:
Add nvim_win_resize(win, width, height, {anchor}) which resizes a window
with a choosable anchor edge, letting a window grow leftwards or upwards
by taking space from the window to the left or above first. The default
anchor reproduces nvim_win_set_width()/nvim_win_set_height().
Problem:
`vim.lsp.buf.format()` accepts ranges using nvim indexing, where an
end column of -1 means end of line. LSP ranges cannot use that,
which is confusing for things like range formatting.
Solution:
Resolve -1 end columns to the line length before converting the range to
LSP positions.
Problem: reset_timer() was being called without checking for whether the
client state for the client_id still existed. debounce_request() starts
a timer that defers a call to send_request() which then calls
reset_timer(). If the timer fires after the client_state is erased, then
the deferred function attempts to dereference the timer on a nil client
state.
Solution: Change reset_timer to take a state directly so it can't be nil
and move the reset_timer() call inside a guard that ensures state
exists. Additionally, reset a client's timer when the client detaches so
it doesn't become dangling.
Problem: The document_color lsp module was already using the capability
framework but was still using raw buffer events to handle requests and
reloading. This means that every keystroke was sending a document_color
request to the server since there was no debounce in the raw handlers.
Solution: Switch to using LspNotify autocmd events. LspNotify fires just
after new document versions are synced with the server and provides a
built in debounce mechanism for changes. It also provides the signal for
when the current state should be cleared (didClose). The detach part is
already handled by the capability framework.
Fixes#39785
Problem:
`request()` and `notify()` are methods of the object returned by
`vim.lsp.rpc.start()`/`connect()`, but were rendered with module-level
helptags (`vim.lsp.rpc.request()`, `vim.lsp.rpc.notify()`) (erroneously
implying module functions that do not exist).
Solution:
Mark the wrappers `@private` and describe them on `vim.lsp.rpc.Client` instead.
Problem: the pos argument in ListOps for lsp is an optional parameter,
but the lua_ls typing system doesn't reflect that

Problem: A previous refactor removed the BufWinEnter autocmd that
initiated a token request. When an LSP server sends a refresh
notification, then buffers that aren't shown in any window lost their
only trigger to request new tokens.
Solution: Add the BufWinEnter autocmd back which simply requests tokens
for all clients attached to the buffer.
Problem: LspNotify will fire for any attached client. If there's at
least two clients where one has semantic tokens enabled and one that
doesn't, the disabled one will get the LspNotify requests but won't have
a client state.
Solution: Only process LspNotify autocmds if there's a client state to
act on.
Fixes#40448
fix(lsp): define autocmds for capabilities in new(), not on_attach()
Problem: Defining autocmds in on_attach() caused issues when multiple
clients provide the same capability for a buffer. Each attaching client
would "replace" the previously defined one since they are all identical.
Then the first one to detach clears them out and any remaining attached
clients would no longer trigger the autocmd for the capability. Further,
the semantic tokens module itself didn't quite work with multiple
clients since any LspNotify (from any client) would send a token request
to all attached clients with no differentiation and the debounce timer
was shared across all clients.
Solution: Always define the buffer-local autocmds in the capability's
`new()` function, and don't mess with the autocmds in on_attach or
on_detach. The capability framework itself will clear the autocmds when
the last client detaches. Also, refactor a bit of the semantic tokens
module so that the various methods take a specific client_id to perform
the work on, and split out timers so each client has its own.
Problem:
Diagnostic tracking used a separate bufstates table and manual
LspDetach/LspNotify autocmd management via _enable()/_refresh(),
duplicating the lifecycle logic already provided by the Capability
framework. This caused inconsistencies in how client attach/detach and
buffer teardown were handled compared to other LSP features.
Solution:
Replace the ad-hoc bufstate tracking and _enable/_refresh pattern in
vim.lsp.diagnostic with a proper Diagnostics subclass of Capability.
This cleans up a few random places in the main lsp module and client
module that were poking the diagnostics. It also fixes some pre-existing
bugs and inconsistencies that were discovered:
- Refresh diagnostics immediately on attach instead of lazily by the
first didOpen/didChange notification
- Fix Capability.active lookup in M.enable() to key by it_bufnr instead
of the filter bufnr
- Set lsp defaults before calling the _text_document_did_open_handler in
Client:on_attach() so defaults are there before any lsp notification
occurs
- Log (and return early) on any error from a diagnostic request result
instead of only returning early for server cancelled errors
Problem:
cmd given as string[] always starts using Nvim's CWD, which is arbitrary.
Solution:
If cmd_cwd is not given, use root_dir as CWD.
BREAKING CHANGE: LSP commands given as string arrays now use `root_dir` as
the process working directory when `cmd_cwd` is unset.
