  • Environments: dev, staging, prod
  • And many more...
• Schema property completion inside resource bodies
• Component input completion inside component instances
• Scope-aware variable suggestions (only shows variables in scope)
• Priority ordering: inputs → variables → resources → components → outputs → functions

• Navigate to schema, component, function, and variable definitions
• Cross-file navigation for imported symbols
• Property navigation: Ctrl+click on property names in resource bodies jumps to schema definition

• Find all usages of schemas, components, functions, and variables
• Cross-file reference search

• Quick documentation on hover
• Shows type information, parameters, and descriptions

• Parameter hints when calling functions
• Shows parameter names and types

• Import validation: Warns when using symbols from non-imported files
