Claude Code ecosystem
What it does
AST-based analysis that answers who calls this and what does this call, plus embedding search so a vague question like "how does the caching work" lands on the right function. Registers itself as an MCP tool for Claude Code or Codex, and can reindex on git commits. The setup wizard picks your embedding model up front — choose a local one if the code is work product, because a hosted provider means it goes there. MIT.
