Fix LSP panic + diagnostic improvements by 2kai2kai2 · Pull Request #4686 · BoundaryML/baml

2kai2kai2 · 2026-09-01T21:27:11Z

Unresolved types in the signature of a required interface method now emit a diagnostic instead of panicking the compiler. This was most often hit in the LSP while writing out a type.
Invalid type bounds should produce diagnostics. Previously they lowered to a poisoned state without emitting diagnostics, which resulted in a compiler panic when the poisoned state reached emit without any error diagnostics.
TyKind::Unknown should not suppress diagnostics: it had been incorrectly conflated with the now-removed Unknown error sentinel
Promptfiddle will now report a user-friendly message if the LSP panics

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes
- Improved diagnostics for invalid operators, ordering comparisons, and calls involving unknown values.
- Unresolved types in interface method signatures and bounds are now reported at the correct location.
- Added clearer validation for invalid interface and class constraints, including unsupported bounds and defaults.
- Removed misleading omissions from required interface method checks.
Reliability
- Language-server and playground requests now fail gracefully with a clear error after an unrecoverable runtime failure.

methods It caused crashes when emitting instead of producing a diagnostic. The bypass has been removed.

We previously emitted a `Ty::Error` without diagnostics, resulting in a panic instead of a graceful failure.

⏭️ Performance benchmarks were skipped

Perf benchmarks (CodSpeed) are opt-in on pull requests — they no longer run on every push. They always run automatically after merge to canary/main.

To run them on this PR, do any of the following, then push a commit (or re-run CI):

Add RUN_CODSPEED=1 to the PR description, or
Include run-perf or /perf in the PR title or any commit message.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The compiler now reports diagnostics for unknown operands and callees, validates required interface signatures and constraint heads, and checks associated-type defaults. The WASM bridge detects unrecoverable runtime state, reports it once, and rejects later requests.

Changes

Compiler diagnostics

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Unknown-type operator diagnostics `baml_language/crates/baml_compiler2_hir_ty/src/infer.rs`, `baml_language/crates/baml_db/src/check.rs`	`unknown` operands and callees now produce ordering, operator, and callability diagnostics. Genuine error cascades remain suppressed.
Interface signature and constraint diagnostics `baml_language/crates/baml_compiler2_hir_ty/src/lower.rs`, `baml_language/crates/baml_db/src/check.rs`	Required interface methods use standard signature diagnostics. Shared constraint-head validation covers class and interface bounds, associated types, defaults, and unresolved heads.

WASM runtime recovery

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Unavailable runtime handling `baml_language/crates/bridge_wasm/src/lib.rs`	The bridge detects unrecoverable borrowed state, sends one `window/showMessage` notification, returns `LspError::Internal` for requests, and ignores later notifications and playground operations.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 6c48c

This change improves compiler diagnostics and LSP panic handling without any supplied current-head merge-blocking risk; it is merge-ready after normal checks and review.

Poem

A rabbit checks each unknown sign,
And bounds now follow one clear line.
The WASM bridge guards the door,
Reports the fault, then asks no more.
Clean diagnostics hop and shine.
