If the problem concerns only the VS Code extension, I use **Run Installed Extension** launch configuration from `launch.json`.
Notably, this uses the usual `rust-analyzer` binary from `PATH`.
For this, it is important to have the following in your `settings.json` file:
```json
{
"rust-analyzer.server.path": "rust-analyzer"
}
```
After I am done with the fix, I use `cargo xtask install --client` to try the new extension for real.
If I need to fix something in the `rust-analyzer` crate, I feel sad because it's on the boundary between the two processes, and working there is slow.

To log all communication between the server and the client, there are two choices:
* You can log on the server side, by running something like
```
env RA_LOG=lsp_server=debug code .
```
* You can log on the client side, by the `rust-analyzer: Toggle LSP Logs` command or enabling `"rust-analyzer.trace.server": "verbose"` workspace setting.
These logs are shown in a separate tab in the output and could be used with LSP inspector.

On the highest level, rust-analyzer is a thing which accepts input source code from the client and produces a structured semantic model of the code.
More specifically, input data consists of a set of test files (`(PathBuf, String)` pairs) and information about project structure, captured in the so called `CrateGraph`.
