mise lsp now flags task references that point at nothing, flags dependency cycles, and offers a one-click rewrite of a deprecated key to its replacement when the schema names it.

Stacked on #14808 (feat(lsp): complete, define, and rename tasks, branch claude/lsp-tasks). Retarget this PR's base to main once #14808 merges. PR 3 is stacked on this one.

Before / after

[tasks.build]
run = "cargo build"

[tasks.test]
depends = ["bild"]      # after: warning `unknown task `bild`; did you mean `build`?` + quick fix

[tasks.a]
depends = ["b"]         # after: error `dependency cycle: a -> b -> a`
[tasks.b]
depends = ["a"]

env_path = ["bin"]      # after: quick fix "Replace with `env._.path`"

Before, none of these were reported, and the deprecated key only got a warning with no fix.

What it does

• unknown-task (warning): a name in depends, depends_post, wait_for or run = [{ task = "..." }] that no task defines, and an extends template that no [task_templates] entry defines. The "did you mean" suggestion is a quick fix that replaces just the name.
• task-cycle (error): each depends that is part of a cycle among the tasks the file defines, with the cycle in the message.
• A quick fix for a deprecated-key when its schema description names the replacement (Deprecated alias for \task.output`, use env._.path instead`, ...).

Staying quiet when it cannot know

unknown-task follows what mise tasks validate checks, and skips what only mise can resolve: patterns (lint:*), monorepo references (//app:build, :build) and optional = true dependencies. Aliases count as names. File tasks (scripts in mise-tasks/ and the other task directories, and in directories includes names) and the user's and system's configs count as defined. When tasks can come from somewhere the server does not read (a glob or git::/oci:: entry in includes, or a task_config.dir) nothing is reported.

The deprecated-key rewrite is only offered when it can be done from schema data without guessing: the replacement is a key the schema declares and does not deprecate, nothing is already there, the value is accepted by the schema in its new place, and the edited text parses to exactly the document with that value moved. env_path, env_file and the deprecated task_* settings qualify (tested against schema/mise.json); descriptions without a named key, such as hook script, get no fix.

The server stays offline and never renders templates.

Docs: docs/ide-integration.md and the mise lsp help (rendered).

Testing

Unit tests for the diagnostics, the skip rules, file tasks, cycles (chain, self, none), and the replacement rules (including the real schema), plus session tests for the quick fixes and diagnostics.

Note

Medium Risk
Large LSP surface area (filesystem scans, env-specific configs, quick fixes that edit keys) with conservative “stay quiet when unsure” rules; mistakes could affect editor diagnostics and renames but not runtime mise execution.

Overview
mise lsp gains task-reference validation, dependency-cycle errors, and safer deprecated-key quick fixes, with broader task discovery so those checks can stay accurate when possible.

The server now emits unknown-task warnings (with optional “did you mean” quick fixes) and task-cycle errors on depends edges, wired through an expanded task index that also scans file tasks, global/user config roots (MISE_CONFIG_DIR, MISE_ENV, etc.), and include directories—while skipping reporting when globs, task_config.dir, scan limits, or unread files mean the index is incomplete. Rename is blocked when references_cut_short applies.

Deprecated keys can offer a replacement when the schema description names one; the fix is validated (schema declares the key, value fits, no collision, re-parse matches) and re-checked at apply time via replacement_holds. task_include_files now returns structured IncludeFiles (files, dirs, skipped/unread flags) for that logic.

Docs and mise lsp help text describe the new diagnostic codes and quick-fix behavior.

📝 Walkthrough

The language server now discovers task definitions across project and configured roots, reports unknown task references and dependency cycles, and offers task-name quick fixes. Deprecated-key quick fixes use schema-declared replacements and checks on the rewritten document. Documentation covers these diagnostics and fixes.

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Task discovery and indexing crates/mise-lsp/src/includes.rs, crates/mise-lsp/src/tasks.rs, crates/mise-lsp/src/server.rs	The index scans project, configured, and included sources. It records file tasks, references, scan limits, and incomplete results.
Task diagnostics and quick fixes crates/mise-lsp/src/tasks.rs, crates/mise-lsp/src/server.rs, documentation files	The language server reports unknown tasks and dependency cycles. It provides task-name quick fixes and serializes diagnostic paths. Documentation describes the expanded diagnostics and fixes.
Validated deprecated-key replacements crates/mise-lsp/src/schema.rs, crates/mise-lsp/src/diagnostics.rs, crates/mise-lsp/src/server.rs, docs/ide-integration.md	Schema descriptions provide replacement paths. Deprecated-key fixes require declared destinations, collision-free edits, unchanged parsed data, and schema validation.

Remove the stale claim that file tasks are not read.

Lines 135-136 still say that file tasks (scripts) are not read. The new unknown-task paragraph at lines 170-174 says that file tasks in mise-tasks/ and included directories count as defined. The two statements contradict each other. Lines 133-134 also leave out the user and system config, and MISE_CONFIG_DIR, which are now indexed.

255-263: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Task diagnostics now scan the filesystem on every keystroke.

diagnostics() runs on every didOpen and didChange. Each call now goes through Index::build, which does the following:

• It walks every ancestor directory and every global root.
• It reads up to MAX_FILES configs and task files, each up to 1 MiB.
• It scans up to 5000 file-task entries.
• It stats every script and reads the first 4 KiB of each script for #MISE alias=.
• Each includes list gets its own 2000-entry scan.

The server is single-threaded. The scan therefore blocks hover, completion and code actions while the user types. Before this change, only hover, completion and navigation requests built the index.

Cache the disk part of the index per directory chain, without the open document's own definitions. Invalidate the cache on didSave, on workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles, or after a short TTL. The open document can then be merged in cheaply on each change.
