AI Analysis
●●SolidCozySolve My Problem
tsserver plugin merges marks into native symbol tree instead of separate group.
Strengths
- •tsserver plugin injection avoids the separate MARK group problem entirely
- •Auto-discovers comment tokens from each language's configuration
- •One substring scan for mark-free files, debounced updates while typing
Weaknesses
- •Code organization extensions already exist in VSCode marketplace
- •Niche workflow—only matters if you already use MARK conventions
