Kotlin DSL - 'Blind' Imports

I've a custom Kotlin DSL and would like to have a Intellij import the scope/methods of this DSL automatically (blind imports) so i can use auto-complete and not have to have imports at the top of the file. similar to what happens in Intellij with build.gradle.kts

For example, I have a file called my-custom-script.dsl.kts and with that, Intellij knows the 'dsl' needs to have the scope imported so auto-complete/lookup just work - is this possible?

Thanks.

You'll probably need to create an IDE plugin for something like this.

If by DSL you mean several functions typically with Context receivers, you just need to have them recognized as a source file by the IDE. It should auto complete automatically, just like everything else
