For those who are using Emacs, https://github.com/federicotdn/verb provides similar UX, I have been using it as a postman alternative for quite some time.

I have been using https://github.com/jacktasia/dumb-jump to quickly jump to definitions. LSP is hit or miss; in some languages, it works great, while in others, the implementation is not so good. I have been thinking about a middle ground based on Tree-sitter. GitHub uses Tree-sitter to power code navigation, but unfortunately, I can't find anything good that I can use offline. Why is there no ctags equivalent powered by Tree-sitter?

We have a similar use case. All Elixir code base, but need to use Python for ML libraries. We decided to use IPC. Elixir will spawn a process and communicate over stdio. https://github.com/akash-akya/ex_cmd makes it a breeze to stream stdin and stdout. This also has the added benefit of keeping the Python side completely stateless and keeping all the domain logic on the Elixir side. Spawning a process might be slower compared to enqueuing a job, but in our case the job usually takes long enough to make it irrelevant.
