The pyright-lsp plugin provides semantic code intelligence for Python. Use LSP tools instead of grep/read when you need semantic accuracy - LSP understands Python's type system, inheritance, and symbol relationships.

| Find all callers of a method | findReferences | Grep for method name | | Get function return type | hover | Read file + parse | | Jump to definition | goToDefinition | Grep + Read | | Check type errors | getDiagnostics | Run mypy/pyright CLI | | View file structure | documentSymbol | Read entire file |

| Grep for symbol before rename | Text search misses method calls through aliases, inheritance | Use findReferences | | Read entire file for one type | Wastes context, slow | Use hover | | Run mypy after every change | Slow, requires external tool | Use getDiagnostics |
