codeweaver AGENTS.md

Project instructions for CodeWeaver, an MCP server that finds relevant code by meaning rather than only matching exact words.

In plain words
What is it for?
They are for guiding changes to CodeWeaver's semantic code search, indexing services, transports, and plugin-based integrations.
Why use it?
They explain the repository's architecture, rules, development commands, and current limitations so an agent can work within the project correctly.

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

codeweaver AGENTS.md 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 2d 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.

Project Overview

CodeWeaver is an extensible MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for semantic code search. It provides intelligent codebase context discovery through a single find_code tool interface, supporting multiple embedding providers, vector databases, and data sources through a plugin architecture.

Architecture: CodeWeaver runs as a daemon with separate transport servers:

  • Daemon: Background services (indexing, file watching, health monitoring)
  • Management Server: HTTP endpoints at port 9329 (health, status, metrics)
  • MCP HTTP Server: FastMCP at port 9328 for HTTP clients
  • MCP stdio: Lightweight proxy that forwards to the HTTP backend (default transport)

Current Status: Early release (0.x). Most core features complete and relatively stable. Advanced functionality planned in several epics.

[!IMPORTANT] Because it is an MCP server, you can use CodeWeaver while assisting with CodeWeaver development! In your list of available tools, you may see find_code or codeweaver__find_code Congrats! You're both an early tester and contributor!

Project Constitution (DEFINITIVE GUIDANCE)

This project is governed by the CodeWeaver Constitution at .specify/memory/constitution.md. (path relative to repo root)

All development decisions, code reviews, and technical choices MUST comply with the constitutional principles. When in doubt, consult the constitution first.

Constitutional Requirements Summary

  1. AI-First Context: Enhance AI agent understanding of code through precise context delivery
  2. Proven Patterns: Use FastAPI/pydantic ecosystem patterns over reinvention
  3. Evidence-Based Development (NON-NEGOTIABLE): All decisions backed by verifiable evidence
  4. Testing Philosophy: Effectiveness over coverage - focus on user-affecting behavior, likely user stories and usage
  5. Simplicity Through Architecture: Clear, flat structure with obvious purpose

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.
