rocq-lsp-client

An OCaml library for programmatic communication with the rocq-lsp language server.

rocq-lsp-client lets you start a coq-lsp process from OCaml code, send LSP commands (e.g. textDocument/hover, textDocument/didOpen), and receive structured responses.

---

🚀 Overview

This library provides a lightweight LSP client implementation specialized for rocq-lsp (the Coq language server). It is intended for tools or research projects that need to interact with Coq via LSP without relying on an editor.

Internally, it:

• spawns a rocq-lsp process,
• communicates using JSON-RPC 2.0 via stdin/stdout,
• and provides OCaml functions for sending requests and parsing responses.
