fix: report unavailable LSP servers explicitly

Evicting the entire entry on derived watcher events was overly aggressive.
Instead, clear cached diagnostics and send a reloadProjects command to the
TypeScript language server so it picks up workspace changes without losing
state.

+### Workspace File Watching
+
+Each `ClientEntry` lazily owns a `WorkspaceWatcher` (`src/watcher.ts`,
+chokidar + picomatch) that translates filesystem events into
+`workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles` notifications. This keeps the server's
+workspace index fresh when files are created/changed/deleted **outside** of
+LSP tool calls (build scripts, codegen, `git checkout`, the agent's own
+file writes).
+
+Non-obvious bits:
+
+- **Patterns come from the server.** We honor `client/registerCapability`
+  for `workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles` and store the registrations on the
+  `LspClient`. **Don't re-stub those handlers**; they look harmless but
+  break the entire feature. If a server doesn't register, we don't watch.
+- **Servers send mixed pattern forms.** Gopls registers absolute-path
+  globs (`/abs/root/**/*.go`); others send relative (`**/*.ts`) or
+  `RelativePattern` objects. `compileWatchers()` tries both relative and
+  absolute matching against each event so we accept all forms.
+- **Ignore layering.** Always-ignore baseline (`.git/`, `.DS_Store`) +
+  root `.gitignore` parsed via the `ignore` package + a small fallback
+  for non-git workspaces. Nested gitignores aren't supported yet.
+- **Startup readiness.** The daemon waits for chokidar's initial scan, capped
+  at 5s, so first requests don't hang indefinitely on huge workspaces.
+- **Debounce.** 50ms quiet period, capped at 500ms max wait so sustained
+  event streams (branch switches) still flush in bounded time.
+- **Watcher and mtime-sync coexist.** When the agent edits a file we'll
+  emit `didChangeWatchedFiles` *and* the next request's `syncFile` will
+  send a `didChange`. Servers treat the two as orthogonal (workspace
+  index vs. editor buffer) and dedupe internally. This matches VS Code.
+- **Rollback.** `PI_LSP_DISABLE_WATCHERS=1` short-circuits all watcher
+  creation — if something goes wrong in a real workspace, this restores
+  the prior "only the queried file is synced" behavior.

-## Adding a Server
+### Per-Repo Config (`.pi-lsp.json`)
 
-Edit `server.ts`. Add an entry to the `servers` array:
+Users can add/override/disable servers without editing `server.ts`. `src/config.ts`
+walks upward from a given path to find `.pi-lsp.json`, parses it, and merges
+with the built-in `servers` list:
+
+- New `id` → appended (must supply `match`, `command`, `args`, `rootMarkers`).
+- Existing `id` → shallow-merged over the built-in (user fields win).
+- `disable: []` → filtered out at the end.
+
+Results are cached per config path, invalidated by mtime. `getServersForPath(p)`
+is the **single entry point** — don't import the raw `servers` array from
+`server.ts` outside `src/config.ts`. The daemon resolves servers at
+`getOrCreateEntry()` time via `findServerById(filePath, id)`, so spawned
+servers reflect the config of the file being acted on. **Already-running**
+entries don't see config changes; users must `/lsp-destroy` to respawn.
+
+## Adding a Server (Built-In)
+
+For servers shipped with pi-lsp, edit `server.ts`. (For per-repo additions,
+users should drop a `.pi-lsp.json` at the repo root — see README.) Add an entry
+to the `servers` array:
 
 ```typescript

 ```
 
+## Per-Repo Config (`.pi-lsp.json`)
+
+Drop a `.pi-lsp.json` at any ancestor of your working files to add or override
+servers for that repo. The nearest config (walking upward) wins.
+
+```json
+{
+  "servers": [
+    {
+      "id": "rust-analyzer",
+      "match": ["rs"],
+      "command": "rust-analyzer",
+      "args": [],
+      "rootMarkers": ["Cargo.toml"],
+      "languageId": "rust"
+    },
+    { "id": "gopls", "args": ["-remote=auto", "-vv"] }
+  ],
+  "disable": ["oxlint"]
+}
+```
+
+**Merge rules:**
+
+- Entry with a built-in `id` → fields shallow-merge over the built-in (user wins).
+- Entry with a new `id` → appended; must include `match`, `command`, `args`, `rootMarkers`.
+- `disable` → filters out matching ids (built-in or user-defined).
+
+**Reloading after edits:** Config is re-read on mtime change, so new lookups
+pick up changes automatically. However, **already-running** language servers in
+the daemon keep their original spawn args. If you change `command`, `args`, or
+`rootMarkers`, run `/lsp-destroy` (or `pi-lsp daemon stop`) so they respawn
+with the new config.
+
+**Security note:** `.pi-lsp.json` controls what binary pi-lsp spawns. Treat it
+like `.vscode/settings.json` — don't accept untrusted configs from arbitrary
+repos.
