Connector Development Solid
Works inClaude Code Claude Cowork Claude Chat
Solid Scanned — metadata only

Eliminates time spent context-switching between repos and tools during code review, incident response, or refactoring.

Read-only enterprise code-search connector — semantic search, symbol lookup, and repo navigation across private/multi-repo codebases, with OAuth 2.0 or access-token auth and RBAC scope-pinning (mcp scope).

FreeNo code needed
Built and maintained by Anthropic, the makers of Claude.

Eliminates time spent context-switching between repos and tools during code review, incident response, or refactoring. Enables semantic understanding of large codebases without local cloning or manual grep workflows.

Engineering teams and architects navigating multi-repo systems or investigating cross-service dependencies at scale.

Reviewer notes

Auto-scanned review. These are observations, not a security certification.

Sourcegraph's own docs are the clearest of this batch on auth and access control: 'supports OAuth 2.0 through Dynamic Client Registration or pre-registered OAuth clients, as well as Sourcegraph access tokens,' with explicit RBAC ('users must have the MCP#ACCESS permission') and scope-pinning guidance ('pin scopes = ["mcp"]'). Access is read-only (search/lookup/navigation only, no write actions), which meaningfully lowers risk. Sourcegraph is an established, decade-plus enterprise dev-tooling vendor. The one real limiter: it's explicitly 'Supported on Enterprise plans' only. | Sentiment: No search performed — session WebSearch budget was exhausted before this tool could be queried. Not scored from community signal. | Ensemble: median of 9 independent doc+sentiment evaluations (official-coverage sweep 2026-07-23).

Things to check

  • Gated to Sourcegraph Enterprise plans — not usable for a client on a lower tier; GA/beta status not explicitly labeled either way. Sentiment search unavailable this session (WebSearch budget exhausted) — not scored from community signal.
