With Claude Desktop:

1. "What entities are in my codebase?"
2. "Find similar code to this function"
3. "Analyze the impact of changing this class"
4. "Suggest refactoring for this file"

Multi-Project Queries:

1. "Analyze the frontend-app codebase structure"
2. "Find authentication functions in backend-api"
3. "Compare user management across all projects"

🧰 Troubleshooting

• Native module mismatch (better-sqlite3)
  Since v2.6.4 the server automatically rebuilds the native binary when it detects a NODE_MODULE_VERSION mismatch. If the automatic rebuild fails (for example due to file permissions), run:

  npm rebuild better-sqlite3
  

  in the installation directory (globally this is commonly /usr/lib/node_modules/@er77/code-graph-rag-mcp).

• Legacy database missing new columns
  Older installations might lack the latest embeddings columns (metadata, model_name, etc.). The server now auto-upgrades in place, but if you still encounter migration errors, delete the local DB and re-run the indexer:

  rm ~/.code-graph-rag/codegraph.db
  

  Then start the server again to trigger a clean rebuild.

• Running a one-shot index from the CLI
  You can trigger tools directly by passing JSON-RPC payloads. When a payload is supplied, the server skips the semantic agent and uses low-memory batching for debugging. Example:

  node dist/index.js /path/to/project \
    '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"index-1","method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"index","arguments":{"directory":"/path/to/project","incremental":false,"fullScan":true,"reset":true}}}'
  

  The command logs progress to logs_llm/mcp-server-YYYY-MM-DD.log. Set MCP_DEBUG_DISABLE_SEMANTIC=0 if you want embeddings enabled during the run.

⚡ System Requirements

Minimum: Node.js 18+, 2GB RAM, Dual-core CPU Recommended: Node.js 18+, 8GB RAM, Quad-core CPU with SSD

Known Issues

• Deprecated boolean@3.2.0 warning: This is a transitive dependency from the optional onnxruntime-node package (used for ML embeddings). The package is deprecated but functional. The warning can be safely ignored as it doesn't affect core functionality.
