Started in case I ever build a language server, thanks! The interface looks very understandable, and the debug server looks really nice.
Now that I think about it, it might be really cool to add LSP to my CLI framework[0] (I already have tab completion for shells, why not make an editor plugin if it's this easy ..)
I wrote this for the infracost LSP so I could write multiple IDE extensions. Its not even really a language server, its just a neat way to parse the Terraform/Cloudformation and return diagnostics.
The godoc format enforces that the comment start with the name of the identifier and be a complete sentence(s) describing what that identifier does. Predates LLMs
To give you some idea how versatile a language server is, I wrote one once to provide go-to-definition between two related blocks in a large proprietary YAML configuration file. If the definition was missing, it would also render the red squiggly line to indicate that something was misspelled.
Another time I used one to make the hosts in my SSH configuration file clickable to either open a terminal with a session or just to display cpu/memory statistics.
Lots of neat editor-independent interactions can be enabled using language servers.

Language servers are cool!

Thankfully, I finally had a reason to build an LSP (infracost LSP), so it motivated this and I'm really pleased with it
