Should we detect whether the current OS is Windows, and only apply this replacement in that case?

My thinking was a regex check for the drive letter at the start would be enough, but if not I could change it to something like:
let queryPath: string = selectedQuery.path;
if (process.platform === 'win32') {
queryPath = queryPath.replace(/^\/([a-zA-Z]:)/, '$1');
}
resolved = await cliServer.resolveQlref(queryPath);There was a problem hiding this comment.
That looks nice and clear to me, together with your existing code comment. A file or directory on Unix with a colon is I think unlikely, but it's helpful to avoid that case entirely.

Am I ok to add https://www.npmjs.com/package/platform as a dependency?

I don't think you need that. You can use os.type() https://nodejs.dev/learn/the-nodejs-os-module#ostype I think this is sufficient.

process.platform should work too.

I just realized now that it might just work with selectedQuery.fsPath. Could you try this out?
| let queryPath: string = selectedQuery.path; | |
| if (os.type() === 'Windows_NT') { | |
| // replaces leading '/' in the query path if followed by a windows drive letter | |
| queryPath = queryPath.replace(/^\/([a-zA-Z]:)/, '$1'); | |
| } | |
| resolved = await cliServer.resolveQlref(queryPath); | |
| resolved = await cliServer.resolveQlref(selectedQuery.fsPath); |
Sorry for not thinking of this earlier.

Appears to work well on Windows and MacOS, I'll commit the change but with a const
Removes the leading '/' in a qlref query path if it's followed by a windows drive letter. Fixes #970
