Lsp
We Measured It: LSP Saves AI Agents 5-34x Tokens vs Grep
We built a reproducible experiment measuring how many tokens AI coding agents consume when navigating code with grep vs LSP. On HashiCorp Consul (319K lines), LSP uses 34x fewer tokens. On a TypeScript rename across 24 files: 1,441x fewer bytes. The experiment covers 4 codebases, 3 languages, 13 tasks covering 7 agent workflows.
agent-lsp: Reliable Code Intelligence for AI Agents via MCP and LSP
I needed AI agents to reliably rename symbols, find references, and check diagnostics without silent failures. The existing MCP-LSP tools were stateless, feature-poor, and untested. So I built agent-lsp: a persistent runtime with 50 tools, 20 provider-agnostic skills, speculative execution, and an audit trail for every AI-driven edit.
