About codemunch-pro
CodeMunch Pro is a code-indexing MCP server for coding agents, indexing local directories and remote repositories. It combines AST parsing, hybrid search, and call graphs with direct byte-offset retrieval of symbol source.
Key features
- 01Index local directories and remote repositories
- 02Support 10 programming languages
- 03Combine FTS5 and vector search
- 04Retrieve symbol source by byte offset
- 05Trace function call relationships
Use cases
- 01Provide code context to coding agents
- 02Review the impact of function signature changes
- 03Find implementations through semantic search
- 04Trace call relationships before refactoring
MCP support
It exposes 15 code indexing and retrieval tools to MCP clients over stdio or HTTP, including symbol search, source retrieval, and call graph queries.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMECodeMunch Pro
Intelligent code indexing MCP server. 15 tools, 10 languages, tree-sitter AST extraction, hybrid search (FTS5 + vector), call graphs, remote repo indexing, incremental indexing.
Save 99% of tokens — get exact function source via byte-offset seek instead of reading entire files.
Install
pip install codemunch-pro

15 MCP Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
index_folder | Index a local directory (incremental, SHA-256 based) |
index_repo | Index a GitHub/GitLab repo (tarball download, no git needed) |
list_repos | List all indexed repositories with stats |
invalidate_cache | Force re-index a repository |
file_tree | Get directory tree with file counts |
file_outline | List symbols in a single file |
repo_outline | List all symbols in repo (summary) |
get_symbol | Get full source of one symbol (O(1) byte seek) |
get_symbols | Batch get multiple symbols |
search_symbols | Hybrid search (FTS5 + vector RRF) |
search_text | Full-text search in file contents |
get_callees | What does this function call? |
get_callers | Who calls this function? |
diff_symbols | What changed since last index? (PR review) |
dependency_map | What does this file depend on? What depends on it? |
10 Languages
Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, Rust, Java, C, C++, C#, Ruby
All via tree-sitter-language-pack — zero compilation, pre-built binaries.
Key Features
O(1) Symbol Retrieval
Every symbol stores its byte offset and length. get_symbol seeks directly to the function source — no reading entire files. A 200-byte function from a 40KB file = 99.5% token savings.
Incremental Indexing
Files are hashed (SHA-256). Only changed files are re-parsed. Re-indexing a 10K file repo after changing one file takes milliseconds.
Hybrid Search (FTS5 + Vector)
Combines BM25 keyword matching with semantic vector similarity using Reciprocal Rank Fusion. Search "authentication middleware" and find auth_middleware, verify_token, and login_handler.
Call Graphs
Traces function calls through the AST. get_callees("main") shows what main calls. get_callers("authenticate") shows who calls authenticate. Supports depth traversal.
Remote Repo Indexing (v1.1)
Index any public GitHub or GitLab repo by URL — no git binary needed. Downloads the tarball via API, extracts, and indexes. Cached locally with SHA-based freshness checks. Supports private repos with auth tokens and sparse paths.
Full-Text Content Search
Search raw file contents — string literals, TODO comments, config values, error messages. Not just symbol names.
How It Works
- Parse — tree-sitter builds an AST for each source file
- Extract — Walk AST to find functions, classes, methods, types, interfaces
- Store — SQLite database per repo with FTS5 virtual tables
- Embed — FastEmbed (ONNX, CPU-only) generates 384-dim vectors for semantic search
- Graph — Call expressions extracted from function bodies, edges stored and resolved
- Serve — FastMCP exposes 13 tools via stdio or HTTP
Architecture
~/.codemunch-pro/
├── myproject_a1b2c3d4e5f6.db # Per-repo SQLite database
├── otherproject_7890abcdef.db
└── ...
Each DB contains:
├── files # Indexed files with SHA-256 hashes
├── symbols # Functions, classes, methods, types
├── symbols_fts # FTS5 full-text search index
├── symbols_vec # sqlite-vec 384-dim vector index
├── call_edges # Call graph (caller → callee)
└── file_content_fts # Raw file content search
Use Cases
- AI Coding Agents: Give your agent surgical access to codebases without burning context
- Code Review: Find all callers of a function before changing its signature
- Onboarding: Search symbols semantically — "where is error handling?" finds relevant code
- Refactoring: Map call graphs before moving functions between modules
- Documentation: Extract all public APIs with signatures and docstrings

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
