Overview
About This Skill
h-codex is a semantic code search tool designed for developers and operations teams who need intelligent context retrieval across multiple repositories. It uses Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) based chunking to parse code optimally, then creates semantic embeddings using OpenAI's text-embedding-3-small model and stores them in PostgreSQL with pgvector for efficient similarity search. The tool supports TypeScript and JavaScript with extensibility for other languages, and integrates seamlessly with AI coding assistants through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). h-codex helps teams improve code navigation, reduce knowledge silos, and accelerate development by making it easier to find relevant code context across projects.
How to Use
Install h-codex via npm and configure it in Claude Desktop by editing claude_mcp_settings.json with your LLM API key and PostgreSQL connection string. Start a PostgreSQL database with pgvector using Docker, run database migrations with pnpm run db:migrate, and then start the development server. h-codex will then index your codebase and make semantic search available through your AI assistant.
Use Cases
Finding relevant code patterns and implementations across multiple repositories
Onboarding new team members by enabling context-aware code exploration
Improving code reusability by discovering similar implementations
Accelerating debugging by locating related code and error patterns across projects

Usage Examples
Prompt Template
Search for all functions related to user authentication in the [COMPANY] codebase, including those in [REPOSITORY_1] and [REPOSITORY_2]. Provide a summary of each function's purpose and parameters, and highlight any security considerations.
Example Output
# User Authentication Functions in [COMPANY] Codebase ## Repository: [REPOSITORY_1] ### Function: `authenticateUser` - **Purpose**: Validates user credentials against the database. - **Parameters**: `username (string)`, `password (string)` - **Security Considerations**: Uses bcrypt for password hashing. Ensure input sanitization to prevent SQL injection. ### Function: `generateAuthToken` - **Purpose**: Generates a JWT token for authenticated users. - **Parameters**: `userId (string)`, `expiry (number)` - **Security Considerations**: Token should be signed with a secure secret key. ## Repository: [REPOSITORY_2] ### Function: `validateSession` - **Purpose**: Checks if a user session is still valid. - **Parameters**: `sessionId (string)` - **Security Considerations**: Session validation should include checks for session expiration and IP address changes.
