Version 1.19 of package Eglot has just been released in GNU ELPA. You can now find it in M-x list-packages RET.
Eglot describes itself as: ================================ The Emacs Client for LSP servers ================================ More at https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/eglot.html ## Summary: Eglot ("Emacs Polyglot") is an Emacs LSP client that stays out of your way. Typing M-x eglot in some source file is often enough to get you started, if the language server you're looking to use is installed in your system. Please refer to the manual, available from https://joaotavora.github.io/eglot/ or from M-x info for more usage instructions. If you wish to contribute changes to Eglot, please do read the user manual first.

Please read the chapter titled "Troubleshooting" in the Eglot manual, available https://joaotavora.github.io/eglot/#Troubleshooting-Eglot This file is about changes in Eglot, the Emacs client for LSP (Language Server Protocol) distributed with GNU Emacs since Emacs version 29.1 and with GNU ELPA since 2018. Note: references to some Eglot issues are presented as "github#nnnn". This refers to https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot/issues/. That is, to look up issue github#1234, go to https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot/issues/1234. * Changes in Eglot 1.19 (23/10/2025) ** Support for call and type hierarchies The new commands 'eglot-show-type-hierarchy' and 'eglot-show-call-hierarchy', when invoked on a symbol, pop up a special buffer showing an interactive tree which represents a hierarchy of sub- and super-types or callers and callees for that symbol. ** New 'eglot-advertise-cancellation' variable Tweaking this variable may help some LSP servers avoid doing costly but ultimately useless work on behalf of the client, improving overall performance. ** Suggests code actions at point A commonly requested feature, Eglot will use ElDoc to ask the server for code actions available at point. This is indicated to the user, who may quickly execute via the usual 'eglot-code-actions' command or with the mouse. Customize with 'eglot-code-action-indications' and 'eglot-code-action-indicator'. ** Mode line is customizable The composition of Eglot's mode line can be fully customized by adding or removing symbols and strings from the customizable variable 'eglot-mode-line-format' ** Improved diagnostic-reporting performance and bugfixes (bug#77588) Eglot remembers the LSP document version pertaining to the diagnostics reported by the LSP server. This helps in skipping useless or confusing diagnostic updates, avoids flakiness with code actions and prevents flickering overlays when the buffer is changed. ** Markdown links migrating to *eldoc* buffer now clickable (bug#79552) Eglot now preserves crucial properties in the Markdown documentation provided by the LSP server, fixing a longstanding bug with clickable hyperlinks. See also github#1238. ** Compliant shutdown requests (bug#79653, bug#66144, github#1540) Eglot now complies with the latest LSP spec, which mandates that the shutdown request mustn't have any parameters. This should fix problems with some servers. * Changes in Eglot 1.18 (20/1/2025) ** 'eglot-managed-mode-hook' now run when turning off Eglot (bug#70958) ** Better handling of 'eglot-report-progress' Eglot no longer advertises the 'workDoneProgress' capability when this customization variable is set to nil. This requires a restart of the server for the change to take effect. ** LSP MarkedString interface is now supported (bug#71353) Some servers still use this deprecated interface for communicating documentation snippets. ** Fixes to completion logic (bug#68699, github#1339, github#1349) These affect mostly the "vanilla" frontend to completions (invoked with C-M-i). ** More strict completion expansion (bug#72705). Ensures that "expand common" commands (such as C-M-i or TAB in third-party frontends) don't result in fewer completions than before they are called. ** More robust completion results when typing quickly (github#1474, bug#73279) ** Support for 'InsertReplaceEdit' objects (bug#73857) This allows servers such as Zig's 'zls' to behave better when completion starts from the middle of an incomplete symbol. ** Experimental support for Eglot-only subprojects (github#1337) Useful for complex projects with subprojects needing different language servers.
