sourcerer-mcp

🥈Silver

Sourcerer MCP enables AI agents to perform semantic code search and navigation, reducing token usage by jumping directly to relevant functions, classes, and code chunks. Benefits developers and operations teams by improving efficiency in code analysis and navigation tasks. Connects to Claude agents via Model Context Protocol.

Usage Examples

Prompt Template

Act as a sourcerer-mcp for semantic code search and navigation. I want to find all instances where [COMPANY] uses [FUNCTIONALITY] in [PROGRAMMING_LANGUAGE]. Provide the file paths, line numbers, and a brief description of the context. Also suggest potential improvements or optimizations for this functionality.

Example Output

# Semantic Code Search Results for [FUNCTIONALITY] in [PROGRAMMING_LANGUAGE]

## Found Instances

1. **File Path**: `/src/utils/validation.js`
   **Line Numbers**: 42-58
   **Context**: Input validation for user registration
   **Description**: Uses regex patterns to validate email and password formats.
   **Suggested Improvement**: Consider using a dedicated validation library like `validator.js` for better maintainability.

2. **File Path**: `/src/api/controllers/userController.js`
   **Line Numbers**: 123-135
   **Context**: User registration endpoint
   **Description**: Calls the validation function and handles the registration logic.
   **Suggested Improvement**: Implement proper error handling for validation failures.

## Summary

- Total instances found: 2
- Suggested improvements: 2
- Estimated token savings: ~150 tokens by using dedicated libraries and proper error handling.
