@cascade-code/editor-service

Provides the local workspace-analysis protocol and stateful query service used by Cascade editor integrations.

Should I install it directly?

Usually no. The Cascade VS Code extension bundles this package; install it only when implementing or testing another editor client against the public service API.

npm install @cascade-code/editor-service@next

Usage

import { WorkspaceAnalysisService } from "@cascade-code/editor-service";

const service = new WorkspaceAnalysisService();

Main responsibilities include the versioned editor request/response protocol, workspace descriptors and health, dependency/impact/affected-test query types, cancellation, resource limits, and WorkspaceAnalysisService.

Environment and privacy

Requires Node.js 22.13 or newer. The service analyzes local workspace content and is designed to remain local to an editor process; clients are responsible for access control before exposing it over any transport.

Limitations

The service inherits core static-analysis limitations and resource bounds. Saved-file refreshes do not turn static evidence into runtime or compiler-semantic guarantees.
