What it does

A local MCP server that gives coding agents a view of your repository. It shows which code patterns the team uses, which files a change is likely to affect, and when there is too little context to trust an edit. It also surfaces strong examples to copy. The index stays on your machine by default and needs Node.js 22 or newer.

Use cases

01Finding how a feature is built elsewhere in the repo
02Checking which files a change will touch before making it
03Keeping agent edits close to the team's conventions
