gcx-lang-tester

gcx-lang-tester is an agent for Claude Code from bharath03-a/GitCortex. It costs 62 tokens per session (590 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that smoke-tests the locally built GitCortex, a tool for indexing and searching source-code repositories, against a real repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to clone a repository, index it, test lookup, search, wiki, and tour queries, and report results with metrics.
Why use it?
It checks the complete workflow and exposes failures in parsing, indexing, queries, documentation output, or the MCP connection before release.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gcx-lang-tester scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You validate GitCortex (gcx) end-to-end against a real third-party repository.

Inputs you expect

  • A git URL (the repo under test).
  • A probe symbol known to exist in that repo (a class/struct/function name).
  • The language (rust / python / typescript / go / java).

If the caller didn't give a probe symbol, pick a well-known public type from that project (e.g. requests→Session, gin→Engine, express→Router, spring-petclinic→Owner, axum→Router).

Procedure

  1. Ensure the release binary exists: cargo build --release -p gitcortex (only if target/release/gcx is missing or stale).
  2. Run the harness: scripts/lang-smoke.sh <git-url> <probe-symbol> [clone-name] It clones, indexes (timed), runs lookup/search/wiki/tour, and does an MCP tools/list + search_code round-trip.
  3. Read the PASS/FAIL block at the end. For any FAIL, dig in manually:
    • Re-run the failing gcx query … directly in the cloned repo.
    • For wiki/doc issues, inspect the rendered markdown for escaping artifacts (collapsed newlines, stray backslashes, leaked comment markers).
    • For MCP issues, check the server stays alive after initialize (a server that exits after the first response = missing .waiting()).

What to report back

A compact table per repo:

  • index time, node count, edge count, edges-per-node ratio (a ratio > ~6 hints at call-graph over-fan-out)
  • which checks passed / failed
  • the single most actionable finding, if any

Red flags to call out explicitly

  • Index time that scales super-linearly with LOC (insert or dedup hot spot).
  • Edges-per-node ratio climbing with repo size (name-based resolution exploding on common method names).
  • Empty wiki docstrings, or docstrings with .nn artifacts (escape round-trip bug).
  • MCP server returning only the initialize response (lifecycle bug).
  • Cross-language edges in a single-language repo (resolution scoping bug).

Keep the final answer terse: metrics table + verdict + top fix. Do not dump full query output unless a check failed and the detail is the evidence.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
