## What it does

The plugin connects Claude to rust-analyzer, the Rust language server. The agent gets code navigation and error analysis for `.rs` files.

The server itself is installed separately. With rustup that is `rustup component add rust-analyzer`; on macOS there is `brew install rust-analyzer`; on Linux you can use `sudo apt install rust-analyzer` or `sudo pacman -S rust-analyzer`. The plugin will not do anything until the binary is on your PATH, so check that `rust-analyzer` runs from the terminal first.

This is for Rust projects. In a JavaScript or Python repo there is nothing for it to talk to, so skip it.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install rust-analyzer-lsp@claude-plugins-official
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-official
```

## When to use it
- jump to a function definition in an unfamiliar Rust crate
- list every place a type is used
- work through compiler errors without leaving the chat
- check a method signature without opening the docs

## Example prompts
- Show me where this trait is defined and which types implement it
- Find every call site of this function
- Explain the compile error in `src/main.rs`
