jCodeMunch

What it does

jCodeMunch is a high-precision MCP server designed to stop AI agents from wasting tokens by reading entire files. It indexes codebases using tree-sitter AST parsing, allowing agents to retrieve only the specific functions, classes, or symbols they need with byte-level precision.

Tools

• search_symbols: Find functions, classes, or constants using fuzzy matching.
• get_symbol_source: Retrieve the exact implementation of a specific symbol.
• get_file_outline: Get a structural map of a file before reading it.
• assemble_task_context: Orchestrate a multi-tool sequence to gather all context for a task in one call.
• plan_turn: Analyze a query to determine the most efficient retrieval route.
• get_blast_radius: Calculate the impact of changing a symbol across the codebase.
• find_dead_code: Identify unreachable symbols and files.
