`repodigest-mcp` is a [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server that wraps
[RepoDigest](https://github.com/nagendra-kon/repodigest)'s static analysis (AST parsing, call graph, BM25 search,
token-budgeted packing) so that Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client can ask for *exactly the slice of a
codebase it needs* instead of reading whole files.

## The problem

Coding assistants explore a repository by reading files. To learn what one function accepts and returns, the
assistant pulls in the entire file: every other function, every body, every import. On a real module that is
routinely 90%+ noise for the question being asked, and it compounds over a session:

- **Context bloat.** The window fills with code that doesn't matter, leaving less room for the code that does.
- **Cost and latency.** You pay for every token in, on every subsequent turn.
- **Worse answers.** Relevant details get buried in long contexts.

Most of what an assistant needs is *structural*, and structure can be extracted deterministically. A function's
interface is its signature and docstring. Its blast radius is its callers and callees. The code relevant to a task
is a neighbourhood in the call graph around the best-matching symbol. None of that needs a model; it needs an
AST.

`repodigest-mcp` exposes those three operations as MCP tools. It runs as a local stdio subprocess: no daemon, no
cloud service, no telemetry, and your source is parsed on your machine…
