How does tramp make my autocomplete work seem I need to build on the remote machine so all the paths are in that file system?

How does it execute the exact version of clangd that is running on the remote not my local laptop, desktop, or windows machine I’m using to remote in?

How well does it search through files on a slower connection when it has to download every byte of every file?

When you’re in a buffer displaying a remote file, most commands take that in account and execute in the remote context. And more often than not, that means connecting through pipes (and files) inside the ssh tunnels. Eglot (with gopls) works fine and fast for me. Executing ‘shell’ opens a remote shell, as well as launching tasks through compilation mode. Grepping and finding files, as well as dired also work fine.
