LSP Servers

OpenCode integrates with your LSP servers.

last_updated: "2026-01-20"

OpenCode integrates with your Language Server Protocol (LSP) to help the LLM interact with your codebase. It uses diagnostics to provide feedback to the LLM.


##Built-in

OpenCode comes with several built-in LSP servers for popular languages:

| LSP Server | Extensions | Requirements | | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | astro | .astro | Auto-installs for Astro projects | | bash | .sh, .bash, .zsh, .ksh | Auto-installs bash-language-server | | clangd | .c, .cpp, .cc, .cxx, .c++, .h, .hpp, .hh, .hxx, .h++ | Auto-installs for C/C++ projects | | csharp | .cs | .NET SDK installed | | clojure-lsp | .clj, .cljs, .cljc, .edn | clojure-lsp command available | | dart | .dart | dart command available | | deno | .ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx, .mjs | deno command available (auto-detects deno.json/deno.jsonc) | | elixir-ls | .ex, .exs | elixir command available | | eslint | .ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx, .mjs, .cjs, .mts, .cts, .vue | eslint dependency in project | | fsharp | .fs, .fsi, .fsx, .fsscript | .NET SDK installed | | gleam | .gleam | gleam command available | | gopls | .go | go command available | | jdtls | .java | Java SDK (version 21+) installed | | kotlin-ls | .kt, .kts | Auto-installs for Kotlin projects | | lua-ls | .lua | Auto-installs for Lua projects | | nixd | .nix | nixd command available | | ocaml-lsp | .ml, .mli | ocamllsp command available | | oxlint | .ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx, .mjs, .cjs, .mts, .cts, .vue, .astro, .svelte | oxlint dependency in project | | php intelephense | .php | Auto-installs for PHP projects | | prisma | .prisma | prisma command available | | pyright | .py, .pyi | pyright dependency installed | | ruby-lsp (rubocop) | .rb, .rake, .gemspec, .ru | ruby and gem commands available | | rust | .rs | rust-analyzer command available | | sourcekit-lsp | .swift, .objc, .objcpp | swift installed (xcode on macOS) | | svelte | .svelte | Auto-installs for Svelte projects | | terraform | .tf, .tfvars | Auto-installs from GitHub releases | | tinymist | .typ, .typc | Auto-installs from GitHub releases | | typescript | .ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx, .mjs, .cjs, .mts, .cts | typescript dependency in project | | vue | .vue | Auto-installs for Vue projects | | yaml-ls | .yaml, .yml | Auto-installs Red Hat yaml-language-server | | zls | .zig, .zon | zig command available |

LSP servers are automatically enabled when one of the above file extensions are detected and the requirements are met.

Note

📝 Note

You can disable automatic LSP server downloads by setting the OPENCODE_DISABLE_LSP_DOWNLOAD environment variable to true.


##How It Works

When opencode opens a file, it:

  1. Checks the file extension against all enabled LSP servers.
  2. Starts the appropriate LSP server if not already running.

##Configure

You can customize LSP servers through the lsp section in your opencode config.

bash
{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "lsp": {}
}

Each LSP server supports the following:

| Property | Type | Description | | ---------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------- | | disabled | boolean | Set this to true to disable the LSP server | | command | string[] | The command to start the LSP server | | extensions | string[] | File extensions this LSP server should handle | | env | object | Environment variables to set when starting server | | initialization | object | Initialization options to send to the LSP server |

Let's look at some examples.


###Disabling LSP servers

To disable all LSP servers globally, set lsp to false:

bash
{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "lsp": false
}

To disable a specific LSP server, set disabled to true:

bash
{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "lsp": {
    "typescript": {
      "disabled": true
    }
  }
}

###Custom LSP servers

You can add custom LSP servers by specifying the command and file extensions:

bash
{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "lsp": {
    "custom-lsp": {
      "command": ["custom-lsp-server", "--stdio"],
      "extensions": [".custom"]
    }
  }
}

##Additional Information

###PHP Intelephense

PHP Intelephense offers premium features through a license key. You can provide a license key by placing (only) the key in a text file at:

  • On macOS/Linux: $HOME/intelephense/licence.txt
  • On Windows: %USERPROFILE%/intelephense/licence.txt

The file should contain only the license key with no additional content.
