I put the VLS server in ~/bin/vls but the extension doesn't expand the ~ and fails to find it.

Research direction

Start by locating the VS Code extension entry point that resolves the configured VLS server location, then reproduce the failure with a path under ~/bin/vls. Done means the extension can find and launch the VLS server when its configured location uses ~.
