jCodemunch MCP

Connects to your local codebase via tree-sitter AST parsing and exposes precise retrieval tools: fetch individual functions, classes, or methods by name instead of reading entire files. Supports 25+ languages and cuts token usage by 95%+ in retrieval-heavy workflows because your agent stops scanning thousands of irrelevant lines. Index once with stdio transport, then query symbols, outlines, references, and scoped context bundles with byte-level precision. Ships with a compact wire format (MUNCH) that shrinks responses by another 45% median. Reach for this when your agent burns tokens opening giant files just to find one implementation, or when you need structured code navigation without the brute-force tax.
