yeah, and this has the advantage of both being deterministic, and only updating things that are actually linked as opposed to also accidentally updating naming collisions

Arguably its only a matter of making lsp features available to the coding agent via tool calls (CLI, MCP) to prevent the model start doing such changes "manually" but rather use the deterministic tools.

Part of why I'm not terribly fond of CLI harnesses, and prefer ones built into editors like zed. They can (but sadly rarely do) access structured information about your codebase, that's more sophisticated than looking for all strings that match
