MCP Server: Codebase Explorer

Description

Allows a LLM to explore a codebase and answer questions about it. It can explore the folder structure while taking into account .agentignore files. It can also read from files, however, it cannot modify the codebase. This server provides a read-only interface to the codebase.

Functionality

• Explore the folder structure
  • list_files_in_directory(path): Lists all files and directories in the given path. This includes hidden files and works non-recursively.
  • list_files_in_root_directory(): Lists all files and directories in the root directory. This includes hidden files and works non-recursively. It is a wrapper around list_files_in_directory("/") to make it easier to call.
• Explore files
  • get_file_content(path): Reads the content of a file. Consider using get_outline_from_file(path, regex) to get an overview of the file and query it for specific information.
  • get_specific_file_content(path, regex): If the file is a source-code file, it will query the file for the given regex. The LLM can suggest a regex, e.g. to list all functions or classes in the file. This is useful to get an overview of the file without reading the entire content. The regex should be a string, e.g. "def\s+\w+\s*\(.*\):" to match all function definitions in Python files.
  • find_files_with_content(regex_or_str): Lists all file paths in the codebase where their content contain the given regex or string. The content should be a string or a regex, e.g. "translation|i18n" to match all occurencies of the string "translation" or "i18n" in the codebase.
