For me the plugin didn't work with clangd because I did setup my 
development
stuff via symlinks and therefore the compilation database file names 
didn't match
the "canonical" file names Kate provided.

I changed my config to use the canonical file names for the 
kdesrc-buildrc and
since then this errors vanished.

Btw., I just tried the current state, very nice!

Find references is really useful!

Highlight with the jump list is nice, too.

Greetings
Christoph
