claude context
Basic Information
claude-context implements a code-search context provider intended to make an entire codebase available as context for Claude-based coding agents. It is described as a Code search MCP for Claude Code and is designed as middleware that lets a coding assistant consult the repository when answering questions or generating code. The project focuses on enabling agents to access repository files and relevant snippets so the agent can reason with repository-aware information rather than relying only on the prompt. The primary audience is developers integrating Claude or similar coding agents who need a way to surface project files as contextual input to improve code-aware assistance.

Features
Implements a code-search message/context provider that exposes repository content to a Claude coding agent. Indexes or catalogs files so the agent can retrieve relevant snippets from the full codebase on demand. Designed to be pluggable into agent workflows so context can be provided dynamically during interactions. Focuses on repository-wide search and selective context injection to avoid overwhelming token limits. Intended to be straightforward to integrate for developers building or extending coding assistants that require project-level knowledge rather than ad hoc file copying.
Use Cases
By providing repository-wide context to a coding agent, claude-context reduces the need for manual extraction and pasting of code, enabling more accurate and contextually informed responses. It helps agents locate relevant functions, modules, and examples from the live codebase which improves debugging, code explanation, refactoring suggestions, and feature implementation guidance. For teams and developers embedding a Claude-based assistant, the tool streamlines integration so the assistant can consult the actual project state, leading to more reliable code guidance and fewer contextual errors due to missing repository information.
