Add SageMath to pylance?

I have been wondering how to write .sage files in vscode with proper lint and highlighting since half a year ago.

There is a question asked in 2023 on stackoverflow. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76201511/add-sagemath-to-pylance
select interpreter

But what is the interpreter path for python used by sage?

It turns out that you can just type sage --python… and everything works
sage --python

A large part of sage is written in cython, so pylance still works bad on this. It would be nice if someone can write a language server for sage.

The best way to install sage: https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/conda.html#sec-installation-conda

Works well with vscode.
