Description

So you can start typing to implement it right away!

I don't know how (or even if) this can be done with LSP.

Research direction
The issue asks for the cursor to move to the function body after the 'generate function' code action. The Gleam language server is written in Rust. Start by exploring the language server code, likely in the 'compiler core/src/language server' directory. Look at how the 'generate function' code action is implemented and whether it sends any edit commands. Review the LSP specification to understand if there is a standard way to request cursor movement (e.g., using 'Command' with a 'workspace/executeCommand' or a custom client side handler). Check the repository's issue and PR history for any related discussions or implementations.
