Details:

Language Server Protocol is the universal standard for better integration of
the various IDEs and editors with the language parsing features. Basically, it
outsources core "IDE logic" in the separate implementation, providing a way to
get the same features in all supported IDEs and editors.

There exist an LSP implementation for MATLAB
https://github.com/tokoro10g/matlab-langserver

The biggest problem it's for well, MATLAB, moreover it's in Java. It is
possible to make LSP server a part of Octave, and implement it in C++.

See these links for more information:
- https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/implementors/servers/

There are some examples on how to implement LSP servers with C++:
- https://github.com/MaskRay/ccls (more complete implementation)
- https://github.com/svenstaro/glsl-language-server (very basic
implementation)
