claude-lsp

A Claude Code plugin that provides ready-to-use LSP (Language Server Protocol) configuration templates. Each language is a standalone plugin — install only what your project needs.

Supported languages

Language	Server	Install
Rust	rust-analyzer	rustup component add rust-analyzer
Go	gopls	go install golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest
TypeScript/JS	typescript-language-server	npm i -g typescript-language-server typescript
Python	pylsp	pip install python-lsp-server
Lua	lua-language-server	brew install lua-language-server
C / C++	clangd	brew install llvm / apt install clangd
Java	jdtls	brew install jdtls
Ruby	solargraph	gem install solargraph
PHP	intelephense	npm i -g intelephense
HTML	vscode-html-language-server	npm i -g vscode-langservers-extracted
CSS / SCSS	vscode-css-language-server	npm i -g vscode-langservers-extracted
YAML	yaml-language-server	npm i -g yaml-language-server

Quick start

1. Register the marketplace

Add claude-lsp as a known marketplace in ~/.claude/settings.json (user-wide) or .claude/settings.json (project-scoped):

{
  "extraKnownMarketplaces": {
    "claude-lsp": {
      "source": {
        "git": "https://github.com/0xankit/claude-lsp"
      }
    }
  }
}

2. Install a language plugin

Inside a Claude Code session, install whichever languages your project needs:

/plugin install lsp/rust-analyzer@claude-lsp
/plugin install lsp/gopls@claude-lsp
/plugin install lsp/typescript-language-server@claude-lsp

That's it — Claude Code picks up the LSP config automatically on the next session start.

Tip: Put the extraKnownMarketplaces entry in ~/.claude/settings.json to make the marketplace available in every project, or in .claude/settings.json at your project root to scope it to one project.

How it works

Each lsp/<server>/ directory contains two files:

lsp/rust-analyzer/
├── plugin.json    ← server metadata and install instructions
└── .lsp.json      ← ready-to-use Claude Code LSP config template

Install the plugin for a language and Claude Code picks up its .lsp.json automatically on the next session start.

Manual template use

You don't have to use the plugin system. Each lsp/<server>/.lsp.json is a self-contained config block you can copy directly.

For example, to add Go support manually, copy from lsp/gopls/.lsp.json:

{
  "go": {
    "command": "gopls",
    "args": ["serve"],
    "extensionToLanguage": {
      ".go": "go"
    },
    "transport": "stdio",
    "settings": {
      "gopls": {
        "staticcheck": true,
        "gofumpt": true
      }
    },
    "startupTimeout": 20000,
    "restartOnCrash": true,
    "maxRestarts": 3
  }
}

Paste it into your project's .claude/.lsp.json, merging with any existing entries.
