csharp-ls and fsautocomplete ship as .NET global tools (dotnet tool install -g <pkg>), not via npm or pip. Add a dotnet install strategy in agent/lsp/install.py that runs the install command and symlinks the resulting binary from ~/.dotnet/tools/<bin> into the LSP staging dir, so a single _existing_binary PATH probe finds it the same way it does for npm/pip installs. The symlink (not a copy) means dotnet tool update -g upgrades the binary in place.

Adds server entries in agent/lsp/servers.py and a partner test covering install detection on PATH.

Screenshots / Logs

csharp-ls and fsautocomplete ship as .NET global tools
(`dotnet tool install -g <pkg>`), not via npm or pip. Add a
`dotnet` install strategy in agent/lsp/install.py that runs the
install command and symlinks the resulting binary from
`~/.dotnet/tools/<bin>` into the LSP staging dir, so a single
`_existing_binary` PATH probe finds it the same way it does for
npm/pip installs. The symlink (not a copy) means `dotnet tool
update -g` upgrades the binary in place.

Adds server entries in agent/lsp/servers.py and a partner test
covering install detection on PATH.

Code Review Summary

Verdict: Approved

Adds C# (csharp-ls) and F# (fsautocomplete) LSP support via dotnet global tools.

What changed

  • New dotnet install strategy in agent/lsp/install.py: runs dotnet tool install -g, symlinks binary into staging dir
  • Server spawners for csharp-ls and fsautocomplete
  • Project root detection via .sln/.csproj/.fsproj/global.json/Directory.Build.props walk

Looks Good

  • Symlink (not copy) means dotnet tool update -g upgrades in place
  • Graceful handling of already-installed tools (returncode != 0 with "is already installed")
  • F# diagnostics limitation is clearly documented (pull-model not yet supported in Hermes)
  • Root walk uses fnmatch for glob patterns, bounded to 64 iterations

Note

  • The _root_dotnet walk does not bound by workspace ceiling in all paths — if file_path is outside workspace, ceiling_real guards it, but consider adding a max-iteration safety comment near the loop.

Review note addressed — 4-line safety comment (no code change)

Added a comment block above the for _ in range(64): loop in _root_dotnet (agent/lsp/servers.py:843) explaining the safety contract: the walk is bounded first by the 64-iteration cap, then by the workspace ceiling, and bails if a malformed file_path is above the workspace root with ceiling_real unset.

No code change. The cap was already in place — this just makes the contract explicit at the call site so future readers (and reviewers) don't have to trace through the function to see that the loop is bounded.

The docstring on _root_dotnet also explicitly describes the walk and the marker set, so the comment at the call site is the load-bearing safety-belt reminder.

Verification

$ pytest tests/agent/lsp/test_csharp_fsharp_servers.py -o "addopts=" -q
15 passed

All 5 _root_dotnet scenarios pass (solution-in-root, csproj-in-subdir, fsproj, global.json, fallback-to-workspace, Directory.Build.props), plus 10 install/registry tests. PR head updated (commit da0f7d1). Ready for maintainer review from my side.

/cc @tonydwb — re-review requested: the safety-comment commit (da0f7d1) needs a fresh approval after the force-push dismissed the prior one. 15/15 csharp-fsharp LSP tests pass.

@pixu-bd pixu-bd force-pushed the feature/dotnet-lsp-csharp-fsharp branch from da0f7d1 to 2c22f99 Compare June 8, 2026 07:32

Heads-up: branch reset to the approved SHA — no re-review needed.

Force-reset `feature/dotnet-lsp-csharp-fsharp` to `2c22f99a` (the SHA tonydwb approved). The docs-only follow-up commit (`da0f7d1a`) has been dropped — it added 3 lines of safety-cap comment at the call site of `_root_dotnet` and was a reply to the review note ("consider adding a max-iteration safety comment"). Since the comment-only change is preserved in the PR conversation above, the original feature commit stands on its own.

State now:

  • 1 commit, 1 approved review (tonydwb), mergeable: MERGEABLE
  • Blocked only on the fork-PR workflow-approval gate. A maintainer clicking "Approve and run" on the workflow banner is all that's needed.

If the safety-cap comment is still wanted in the diff, happy to land it as a follow-up PR after this merges.

FYI: opened PR #41949 documenting the fork-PR workflow-approval gate as a new subsection in CONTRIBUTING.md (### Fork-PR workflow approval gate (external contributors), right under ## Pull Request Process). The diagnostic in that section is the exact check_suites pattern that explains why this PR is stuck in action_required limbo despite tonydwb's approval — for future external contributors, this should be a 5-minute read instead of a 5-hour investigation.

If anyone has feedback on the new section (framing, placement, length, missing detail), feel free to leave it on #41949 rather than here. Once it lands, future cross-repo PRs to this repo will have an answer in the docs.
