* LSP seam: async execution model, helix keymap, evaluation harnessGabriel Schneider2026-08-01
The base every language backend plugs into. Three parts: ASYNC. The core had no request/response shape - every effect was fire-and-forget or instantaneous. A language query is the first thing that answers later, so: Effect .lsp -> shell worker -> Event .lsp_resp. tty.zig uses io.concurrent + the vaxis queue, gui.zig a detached thread + the mutex queue it already had for ptys; web no-ops it. The worker never touches the core (path/source/arg are snapshotted into an LspJob), one query in flight identified by a monotonic id so a second press makes the first answer stale, and no rows is a legal answer. KEYMAP. Helix's, verified against its default.rs rather than recalled. gd/gD/gy/gi/gr and ]d/[d had no conflicts. The SPC letters did, so pardes's own builtins moved instead of helix's: Kill k->q, Del d->wc (closing a pane is a window op, and c is helix's own close), Dump/Restore s?->f?, Tutor ht->T. A three-exception muscle-memory map is not a map. RESULTS ARE +SEARCH ROWS. path:LINE:COL text, absolute. That is what look.zig resolves and n/N step, so one row from a goto jumps and several open a buffer - helix's multi-result picker needed no picker code. Backends supply exactly one function (lsp.query) plus a supports set and a name; the base has none on purpose. zig build lspbench scores them on the same corpus: feature matrix (trusting results, not the supports flag - a claimed-but-empty kind is reported as a false claim), cold and warm latency, peak RSS. Two snapshot scripts moved. leader.snap encoded the old key paths. chordcut.snap's last two steps clicked column 5, which lands on a FILE pane, so 'key c-b' toggled nothing and the typed text was being read as normal-mode keys - the golden recorded no TTY pane and no cat -v output anywhere. Pointing them at an actual shell makes both steps assert what their comments claim, and the tty paste chord is now covered for the first time.
