7 tools

• code_analyze

  Instant repo overview — languages, complexity, file count, tech stack, code quality findings, and secret scanning. Use as your first call to understand any remote public codebase. This is the tool that scans for LEAKED CREDENTIALS: security_summary is a dedicated secret and…

• code_search

  Fast code search across any public git repo. Returns file paths, line numbers, and code snippets with context. Supports regex, boolean queries, fuzzy matching, and structural filters (declarations, usages, strings, comments). Dependency/build directories excluded by default…

• code_get_file

  Get code from a remote public git repository — either a specific function/class by name, a line range, or a full file. PREFERRED WORKFLOW: When search results or findings have already identified a specific function, method, or class, use symbol_name to extract just that…

• code_file_tree

  List files and directories in any public git repo. Supports fuzzy file search (query parameter), language/path filtering, and depth control. Combine query with path_filter to search within a directory subset. Use to explore project layout, find files by name, or browse specific…

• code_find_usages

  Find which files in a repository use a given technology, library or framework — with the line number and the import keyword that proves it. Use after code_analyze reports a technology in tech_stack and you need to know which files it is actually in, rather than searching for…
