codebase-memory-mcp

The fastest and most efficient code intelligence engine for AI coding agents. Full-indexes an average repository in milliseconds, the Linux kernel (28M LOC, 75K files) in 3 minutes. Answers structural queries in under 1ms. Ships as a single static binary — this package downloads and runs it automatically.

High-quality parsing through tree-sitter AST analysis across 159 languages — producing a persistent knowledge graph of functions, classes, call chains, HTTP routes, and cross-service links. 14 MCP tools. Zero dependencies. Plug and play across 11 coding agents.

Installation

npm install -g codebase-memory-mcp

The binary for your platform is downloaded automatically at install time. Then configure your coding agents:

codebase-memory-mcp install

Restart your agent. Say "Index this project" — done.

Why codebase-memory-mcp

• Extreme indexing speed — Linux kernel (28M LOC, 75K files) in 3 minutes. RAM-first pipeline with LZ4 compression and in-memory SQLite.
• Plug and play — single static binary for macOS (arm64/amd64), Linux (arm64/amd64), and Windows (amd64). No Docker, no runtime dependencies, no API keys.
• 159 languages — vendored tree-sitter grammars compiled into the binary. Nothing to install, nothing that breaks.
• 120x fewer tokens — 5 structural queries: ~3,400 tokens vs ~412,000 via file-by-file search.
• 11 agents, one command — install auto-detects Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Zed, OpenCode, Antigravity, Aider, KiloCode, VS Code, OpenClaw, and Kiro.
• 14 MCP tools — search, trace, architecture, impact analysis, Cypher queries, dead code detection, cross-service HTTP linking, ADR management, and more.
