I wasn't aware you were using tramp, I thought you were attempting to
run clojure-lsp on a remote server to work with a project on a local
machine, which shouldn't work. clojure-lsp needs access to the files,
including jar files, to work properly.

I think I am just confused at this point. Can you explain more about
what your current setup is for this question? In trying to understand,
it sounds like you are using Emacs to connect to a remote machine
somewhere via tramp. On the remote machine is a clojure project and a
running clojure-lsp server. When you try to navigate to a definition in
a jar, it is returning a jar URI pointing to something on your local
machine, not the remote machine like it should? Does that sound right?

Fwiw, I have never used tramp before, so I'm not sure how Eglot or
clojure-lsp will behave in that kind of environment.
