Lsp Setup

Automates the entire LSP setup process for GitHub Copilot CLI so you get go-to-definition, find-references, and hover info without manually configuring JSON files. It detects your OS, installs the right language server (TypeScript, Python, Java, whatever), and writes the config to either your user-level or repo-level settings. The workflow is interactive with clear prompts, and it merges into existing configs without clobbering other servers. Most useful when you're starting a new project or language and don't want to dig through LSP server documentation. Just remember to restart Copilot CLI afterward or the new config won't load.
