I have checked that this feature is not already implemented This feature does not exist Use case When I write a single line comment, I usually want to write code directly after. However, ruby-lsp implements comment continuation for even single line comments, which causes me to attempt to write code on a comment line all the time before I notice and have to go back to remove the leading #. No other LSP that I use does comment continuation this way. The possibility to disable this would make it more convenient to write code for people using multiple languages. Description The option to disable comment continuation via the settings of the editor. I only work with VS Code, so I don't know if there would be complications for other editors. Implementation I'm (kind of) new to Ruby so I don't trust myself to talk implementation details, but I believe I have found where this feature is implemented at least: ruby-lsp/lib/ruby_lsp/requests/on_type_formatting.rb

Summary textDocument/prepareRename returns nil (and textDocument/rename silently no-ops) when the cursor is placed on the definition site of a top-level constant. Renaming works only from reference sites. The result is the editor surfaces "current selection cannot be renamed" on what looks like a perfectly valid rename target. Reproduction example.rb: class Example FOO = 1 #^ cursor here end LSP request: textDocument/prepareRename position: { line: 1, character: 2 } # on the F of FOO Expected: a Range covering FOO, allowing the editor to proceed with rename. Actual: server returns null. Editor reports "cannot be renamed." Placing the cursor on a reference of FOO elsewhere works correctly. The same applies to multi-assignment targets (A, B = 1, 2). Root cause PrepareRename and Rename filter RubyDocument.locate to: Prism::ConstantReadNode Prism::ConstantPathNode Prism::ConstantPathTargetNode A top-level constant assignment LHS (FOO = ...) parses as Prism::ConstantWriteNode, and
