index

index is a skill for Claude Code from sdsrss/code-graph-mcp. It costs 44 tokens per session (263 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A maintenance guide for a code-graph index, which is a searchable map of relationships in a codebase. It checks index health and provides incremental or full rebuild commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps check index status, update changed files, rebuild the complete index, and choose the command-line repair path when no server is running.
Why use it?
It addresses empty or unexpected search results and repairs indexes after major codebase restructuring. It uses an atomic replacement so a running server does not see a half-built index.

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

index 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Index Maintenance

Check health

code-graph-mcp health-check

Rebuild (incremental — only changed files)

code-graph-mcp incremental-index

Full rebuild (when incremental isn't enough)

code-graph-mcp rebuild-index --confirm

This builds the new index in a temporary location and swaps it in with an atomic rename, so a running MCP server (and its open WAL) never observes a half-built index. Deleting the .code-graph/ directory by hand skips that swap, which is the exact situation the atomic path exists for.

get_index_status and rebuild_index do dispatch over JSON-RPC, but they are deliberately kept out of tools/list to save tokens (src/mcp/tools.rs), so they are not in your callable tool set — the CLI above is the surface you have. It is also the only one that works with no server running.

Changes

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.

index is a skill published in the GitHub repository sdsrss/code-graph-mcp (84 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 263 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-14.

why

Work out whether a failure is your machine or your code before debugging either, using the environment this repository has declared and the dependency map. Use when a test, build or command fails and the cause is not obvious from the error.
