7. mcp-codebase-index

   6 2 56 8.6 Python

   17 MCP query tools for codebase navigation — functions, classes, imports, dependency graphs, change impact. Zero dependencies. 87% token reduction.

   

   Project mention: Show HN: MCP Codebase Index – 87% fewer tokens when AI navigates your codebase | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-02-17

   Every list-returning tool takes max_results, source tools take max_lines. AI agents can manage their own token budgets.

   The most interesting tool is probably get_change_impact — it walks the dependency graph transitively to tell you every symbol that would be affected by changing a given function or class. Traditional approach: read every file and hope the AI figures it out. Indexed approach: 204 characters.

   Works with Claude Code, OpenClaw, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client.

   pip install "mcp-codebase-index[mcp]"

   Project mention: Show HN: Analyze binary capabilities in-browser with capa and Pyodide | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-01-21

   Hey all!

   I’ve been working on getting Mandiant’s capa (a tool for identifying capabilities in executables) to run entirely client-side in the browser using Pyodide.

   To make this happen, I’ve been working through the capa dependency tree to ensure all upstream packages publish an sdist or pure-Python wheels. We’ve finally reached the point where it’s possible to run capa to analyze binaries in a browser using the vivisect backend.

   The long-term goal is to upstream these changes to the official mandiant/capa repository. I’d love for people to try it out and let me know how the performance feels or if you run into any quirks.

   Again, a live version can be found here: https://surfactant.readthedocs.io/en/latest/capa/

   And the source files for the page is here: https://github.com/llnl/Surfactant/tree/main/docs/capa

   Suggestions and bug reports are welcome!
