What IDE agent gets access to LSP?

I use Zed and unless there is some MCP server that provides the same thing as the LSP server, the Zed agent won't have access, even though it's in an IDE that supposedly has this information

Cursor, Copilot, Roo Code, Cline, among others.

Hi, I just looked up and two weeks ago someone made this suggestion in Cursor forum

https://forum.cursor.com/t/support-of-lsp-language-server-pr...

> organize imports, format code, etc…

And last Friday a Cursor engineer replied "Thanks for the idea!"

So how does the AI agent in Cursor currently have access to LSP?

(I am most interested in having the agent use LSP for type checking, documentation of a method call, etc. rather than running slower commands)

(note, there is an open PR for Zed to pull LSP diagnostics into an AI agent thread https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/42270 but it would be better if agents could make arbitrary LSP queries or something like that)
