Context Sherpa

What it does

Context Sherpa is a specialized context engineering platform that provides AI coding agents with precise, high-fidelity symbolic signals (definitions, references, and impact analysis). It eliminates the noise of traditional grep or semantic search by using structural analysis to ensure code changes are correct and idiomatic.

Tools

• Code Atlas Explorer: Visualizes and inspects codebase relationships.
• Agent Rule Management: Manages project-specific standards via ast-grep.
• Local Reasoning: Integrates with Ollama/LM Studio for tiered inference and semantic triage.
• Symbolic Indexing: Provides exact symbol resolution using SCIP for Go, TypeScript, and Python.
