Thanks, this looks pretty good, I think there are a couple of adjustments...

        getDeclAtPosition(AST, CurLoc, Relations, NodeKind)) {
     // Special case: void foo() ^override: jump to the overridden method.

`Underlying` isn't appropriate here - it's used for situations like typedefs where there's clearly two symbols (two names) and an asymmetrical synonym relation (e.g. int32 is a synonym for int, but not the other way around).
Here we have a declaration/definition pair of a (what we're treating as) a single decl.

Can you just stop setting `Underlying` in FindTargets?

Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clangd/index/SymbolCollector.cpp:160
 
-// Checks whether \p ND is a definition of a TagDecl (class/struct/enum/union)
-// in a header file, in which case clangd would prefer to use ND as a canonical
-// declaration.
+// Checks whether \p ND is a preferred declaration to clangd. Typically this
+// means preferring true declarations over forward declarations.
----------------
"preferred" declaration is just the method name, and "true" declaration doesn't seem to clarify much.

For this overview paragraph I'd suggest: Checks whether \p ND is a good candidate to be the *canonical* declaration of its symbol (e.g. a go-to-declaration target). This overrides the default of using Clang's canonical declaration, which is the first in the TU.


================
Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clangd/index/SymbolCollector.cpp:163
+//
+// For C++:
+// If \p ND is a definition of a TagDecl (class/struct/enum/union) in a header,
----------------
I'm not sure the for C++/for ObjC split in the doc makes sense - these special cases are more to do with the node types than the underlying languages (which can overlap).


================
Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clangd/index/SymbolCollector.cpp:186
+//
+// For example, Objective-C classes can have three types of
+// declarations, all with the same USR:
----------------
this isn't really an example, it's the only case. I think it can be moved inside the function, above the case itself.

"We treat ObjCImplDecl as a definition but not a declaration - the corresponding ObjcInterfaceDecl is the declaration"


================
Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clangd/index/SymbolCollector.cpp:371
+  // TU, because in practice they are definitions.
+  if (shouldRecordDeclaration(*ND)) {
+    if (isPreferredDeclaration(*OriginalDecl, Roles))
----------------
Hmm, not sure about this. What if the @implementation is in a different file we're not indexing? Then we'll end up with no declaration.

Probably instead we should treat this as if it were a non-preferred non-canonical declaration whose canonical declaration is the @interface.
i.e. around where FOK is handled:
```
if (auto *OCID = llvm::dyn_cast<ObjCImplDecl>(D))
  D = OCID->getClassInterface(); // hmm, but maybe not if it's an implicit @interface
```


================
Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clangd/index/SymbolCollector.cpp:376
+    else
+      BasicSymbol = addDeclaration(*ND, std::move(*ID), IsMainFileOnly);
+  }
----------------
you're now clobbering BasicSymbol every time, even if it was set and this isn't a preferred declaration


================
Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clangd/unittests/FindTargetTests.cpp:611
 
+  Code = R"cpp(
+    @interface Foo
----------------
can we add a case here and in symbolcollector testing the "implicit interface decl" case? (ObjCInterfaceDecl::isImplicitInterfaceDecl())
