And last Friday a Cursor engineer replied "Thanks for the idea!"
So how does the AI agent in Cursor currently have access to LSP?
(I am most interested in having the agent use LSP for type checking, documentation of a method call, etc. rather than running slower commands)
(note, there is an open PR for Zed to pull LSP diagnostics into an AI agent thread https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/42270 but it would be better if agents could make arbitrary LSP queries or something like that)
