Shaktiman
Local-first code context engine for coding agents.
Shaktiman indexes your codebase with tree-sitter and exposes it to Claude Code (or any MCP client) as a set of tools that search, navigate, and assemble budget-fitted code context — so your agent does its job in fewer tokens, with better recall.
- Indexes code using tree-sitter: functions, classes, symbols, imports, call graphs.
- Hybrid search — keyword (FTS5) + semantic (vector) + structural + change signals.
- Budget-fitted context — ask for 4K tokens, get exactly 4K tokens of the most relevant code.
- Live updates — a file watcher re-indexes on save.
Where to next
- Getting Started → Installation — build the binary and verify it runs.
- Reference → MCP Tools — what each tool does and how to call it.
- Design & ADRs — architectural context for contributors.
