Copy this message into a Claude chat. The AI checks your computer, tells you which file it will change, and waits for your OK every time.
Please install the MCP server Codemunch Pro for Claude on this computer, in this order: 1) Check uv with uv --version. If it is missing, tell me to install it from https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/; do not install it yourself. 2) Use only this config (already checked by PopNx MCP): { "mcpServers": { "codemunch-pro": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "codemunch-pro" ] } } } 3) Tell me the full path of the file you will change, or the command you will run, and wait for my OK. 4) No key is needed. 5) Do what we agreed, then check that the Codemunch Pro tools really show up.This message has no key in it. If a key is needed, the AI will ask you to paste it yourself into the file or the app’s field.

Common questions
Is Codemunch Pro safe?
It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed 9 months ago, and the latest version (1.2.0) reached the registry 9 months ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

CodeMunch 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
Quick Start
Claude Desktop / Cline
Add to your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": { "codemunch-pro": { "command": "codemunch-pro" } } }
HTTP Server
codemunch-pro --transport streamable-http --port 5002
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

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
