Indigenous AI Domain-Specific Language Server
AI Studio Scaffolding Package
This package contains everything AI Studio needs to fully generate a working Claude Code LSP plugin that makes your Indigenous AI research framework semantically legible.
What You'll Have When This Is Done
A Claude Code plugin that runs in your terminal alongside Claude Code. When you're writing documentation, code comments, or having conversations about your work:
- Instant definitions - Hover over or query "creative orientation" and instantly get full definition + relational context
- Smart lookups - "findReferences" shows everywhere this concept appears in your docs
- Relational navigation - "What's the relationship between structural tension and creative orientation?" answered immediately with context
- Indigenous knowledge integration - Every concept operation includes Two-Eyed Seeing, polycentric relations, relational knowledge, and ceremonial context
- Real-time diagnostics - Server flags terminology inconsistencies and suggests framework-aligned language
- Semantic coherence - Framework becomes first-class citizen in your development environment
Performance: 50ms response times instead of searching past conversations (45 seconds).
Package Contents
1. initial_prompt.md
What it is: The complete project vision and requirements for AI Studio.
Includes:
- Project purpose and vision
- Core concepts to implement
- Technical architecture overview
- Success criteria
For AI Studio: Use this as your primary input prompt. It tells the implementation agent exactly what to build.
2. rispecs.md
What it is: Detailed RISE specifications for five major components.
Components specified:
- Concept Registry Module - Data structure that stores all framework concepts, definitions, and relationships
- LSP Operations Handler - How to adapt standard LSP operations (goToDefinition, hover, findReferences, etc.) for concepts instead of code
- Relational Graph Engine - Knowledge graph showing how concepts relate to each other
- Indigenous Knowledge Mapper - Ensures all concepts are embedded in Indigenous knowledge systems (Two-Eyed Seeing, polycentric, relational, ceremonial)
- Plugin Configuration & Lifecycle - How the plugin installs, starts, and manages LSP server lifecycle
For AI Studio: These specs define the module architecture and success metrics. Implementation agent uses these to build the system.
3. concept-registry.yaml
What it is: The semantic foundation - all core concepts, definitions, and relationships in YAML format (human-readable and editable).
Contains:
- Creative Orientation Framework: creative-orientation, structural-tension, current-reality, desired-state
- Eight Feelings Framework: All eight emotional/developmental capacities (Trust, Autonomy, Initiative, Accomplishment, Identity, Intimacy, Generativity, Integrity) plus relational healing
- Indigenous Knowledge Systems: Two-Eyed Seeing, polycentric relations, relational knowledge, ceremonial context, land responsibility, seven generations principle, reciprocity, emergence
Each concept includes:
- Clear definition
- Related concepts
- Four Indigenous knowledge system connections (Two-Eyed Seeing, polycentric, relational, ceremonial)
- Usage contexts and examples
- Source references
For AI Studio: This is the semantic content the server will serve. The implementation agent will:
- Convert to JSON for efficient server loading
- Index concepts for fast lookups
- Build relational graph from "relatedConcepts" mappings
- Create LSP diagnostic rules based on Indigenous knowledge mappings
How to Use This with AI Studio
Step 1: Create New Project
In Google AI Studio:
- Project name: "Indigenous AI DSL Server"
- Description: "Claude Code LSP plugin providing semantic understanding of Indigenous AI research framework"
Step 2: Provide Initial Prompt
Copy the contents of initial_prompt.md and paste into AI Studio as your project prompt.
Step 3: Attach Supporting Materials
Upload or reference:
rispecs.md- Detailed specificationsconcept-registry.yaml- The semantic content
Step 4: Run Implementation
AI Studio's agent will:
- Parse your requirements
- Design the Python LSP server architecture
- Implement the concept registry (YAML โ JSON)
- Build LSP operations handlers (goToDefinition, hover, getDiagnostics, etc.)
- Create the relational graph engine
- Generate Claude Code plugin configuration (plugin.json, .lsp.json)
- Build lifecycle management (hooks for auto-installation, error handling)
- Provide complete, runnable code
Step 5: Install & Use
Generated code will include:
- Python package (
indigenous_ai_dsl_server/) - Configuration files (
.lsp.json,plugin.json) - Registry files (
concept-registry.json) - Setup/installation scripts
- Documentation for manual testing
You'll install via:
/plugin install indigenous-ai-dsl@marketplace
Then it runs automatically when you open Claude Code.
Key Features AI Studio Will Generate
Core LSP Operations (Language Server Protocol)
- goToDefinition - Jump to concept definition
- hover - Show concept info on hover
- findReferences - Find all uses of a concept
- documentSymbol - View concept hierarchy
- getDiagnostics - Real-time terminology validation
Smart Lookups
- Symbol resolution for 25+ core concepts
- Relationship traversal (show connected concepts)
- Indigenous knowledge system context on every query
- <100ms response time guarantee
File Format Support
- Markdown (.md) - documentation, specs, writings
- Plain text (.txt) - notes, logs
- Python (.py) - code, comments
- JavaScript (.js) - comments, documentation
- Extensible to other formats
Relational Understanding
- Shows how concepts relate (enables, contextualizes, builds on, contrasts with)
- Validates concept usage for coherence
- Suggests framework-aligned language
- Prevents terminology drift

Language
- Server: Python 3.8+
- LSP Library: pygls (Python Language Server Protocol library)
- Plugin Type: Claude Code Standard LSP Plugin
- Configuration: JSON (plugin.json, .lsp.json) + YAML (concept registry, editable)
Dependencies
- Python 3.8+
- pygls library (LSP implementation)
- Standard library (no other heavy deps)
- File system access (registry files must be accessible)
Registry Conversion
The YAML registry you have will be automatically converted to JSON for:
- Efficient server loading
- Fast indexing and searching
- Relational graph construction
You'll maintain both formats (YAML for editing, JSON for serving).
What Makes This Unique
This is not a code autocomplete LSP. It's a semantic framework server that:
โ Encodes your research framework as a first-class LSP participant โ Makes Indigenous knowledge systems primary, not secondary โ Provides relational understanding (how concepts connect) โ Integrates ceremonial context into every query โ Validates terminology for framework coherence โ Works across all file types (not just code) โ Serves definitions with full relational context (<50ms)
This is AI development moving from "understanding code" to "understanding thought frameworks." It's a new category of language server.
Next Steps
- Review this scaffolding package
- Provide to AI Studio - Copy initial_prompt.md as input, reference altri docs
- Wait for generation - AI Studio builds complete, runnable server
- Test - Try basic operations in Claude Code (might need slight fixes)
- Deploy - Install as Claude Code plugin
- Use & Iterate - Add more concepts, refine relationships, deepen Indigenous knowledge mappings
Questions for You Before AI Studio
Before handing this to AI Studio, consider:
- Priority concepts: Want to start with core 7 concepts or go full 25+?
- File types: Just Markdown + text, or also Python/JavaScript comments?
- Query style: Prefer LSP operations (IDE-like) or also support natural language queries?
- Performance threshold: 50ms okay, or need faster?
- Auto-installation: Want plugin to auto-install Python dependencies, or manual setup?
These will help AI Studio optimize for your specific needs.
Success = You Can Do This in Claude Code
Before this server:
Me: "What does creative orientation mean in your framework?"
You: *needs to explain it again*
After this server:
You hover over "creative orientation" while writing
Server: Returns definition + how it relates to structural tension,
eight-feelings, ceremonial context, two-eyed seeing...
Me: I already know what you mean
That's the win. Framework knowledge becomes shared, legible, immediate.
This scaffolding package is ready for AI Studio. All specifications, semantic content, and technical requirements are included. You're ready to generate a working Indigenous AI DSL Server.
