Current State

Autocomplete is handled by minuet-ai.nvim
(https://github.com/milanglacier/minuet-ai.nvim) via nvim-cmp, using
a custom openai_fim_compatible provider pointed at Ollama or
OpenRouter. While functional, this is a plugin-specific approach tied
to the nvim-cmp ecosystem.

Proposal

Replace Minuet with an LSP-based FIM solution:

llm-ls (https://github.com/huggingface/llm-ls) — LSP server for FIM
completions, supports any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (Ollama,
OpenRouter)
llm.nvim (https://github.com/huggingface/llm.nvim) — Neovim plugin
that connects to llm-ls

LSP 3.18 includes native support for inline completion via
textDocument/inlineCompletion, making this the open standard for AI
autocomplete across editors.

Benefits

Standard protocol: same approach works in any LSP-compatible editor
Backend flexibility: swap between Ollama and OpenRouter in one
place
Separation of concerns: autocomplete (LSP) and agent (ACP via
CodeCompanion) use independent, replaceable layers
Less coupling: removes dependency on nvim-cmp for AI completions
