Reduces token consumption in AI-assisted coding by 94% through semantic code indexing, directly lowering inference costs and latency for large-scale codebases.

High-performance code intelligence engine that indexes repositories into an in-memory knowledge graph and exposes it via CLI, MCP Server, and web UI. Built for AI coding agents - expose only needed information - one get_editing_context call replaces 5-10 file reads, cutting token usage by ~94%.

AI agent fetches editing context for bugfix without reading 10+ files
Codebase search by intent (e.g., 'all auth handlers') instead of grep
Incremental indexing for CI/CD pipeline code review automation

Why it matters

Reduces token consumption in AI-assisted coding by 94% through semantic code indexing, directly lowering inference costs and latency for large-scale codebases. Replaces repeated file reads with single, focused context retrieval calls.

Best for

Teams running AI coding agents on large repositories who need to minimize token usage, API costs, and context window pressure without losing code understanding.
