Description

I'm not sure how to do this because there are no methods returning SemanticTokensLegend. Apparently it's supposed to be determined when first connecting to the server? I had Claude take a stab at this but it wrote some code that made start_server() hang. I don't understand python's async or multilspy's design well enough to fix it.

Research direction

Start by tracing start_server() and the first connection to determine where SemanticTokensLegend becomes available, while reviewing the surrounding Python async flow and multilspy design. Done means the legend is exposed to callers without making start_server() hang; verify the connection startup path and its async behavior.
