Very long time vim/neovim user here. I can't remember names atm and can't check, but I have definitely seen plugins that run a headless or subset of VScode in the background to pull info from it. It may not be super common, but it is being done

You are probably referring to language support plug-ins.

IIRC, debugger support for java needed a component from one of the official plug-ins.
