JevGrep: an MCP tool that gives Claude Code semantic code search to save context
MathBullied · reddit · 2026-09-21
JevGrep is an open-source MCP tool that lets Claude ask natural-language questions about a codebase, ranking code fragments by relevance and returning source with file paths and line numbers—instead of multiple grep/rg searches and full-file reads. It works as a CLI or an MCP server attached to Claude Code; the author reports noticeably reduced context usage and search time on repo exploration tasks. GitHub: nassim-arifette/jevgrep.
