SocratiCode

"There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance." — Socrates

Your AI reads code. SocratiCode understands it.

The open-source codebase context engine: give any AI instant automated knowledge of your entire codebase (and infrastructure) — at scale, zero configuration, fully private, completely free.

One thing, done well: deep codebase intelligence — zero setup, no bloat, fully automatic. SocratiCode gives AI assistants deep semantic understanding of your codebase — hybrid search, cross-project search, polyglot code dependency graphs, and searchable context artifacts (database schemas, API specs, infra configs, architecture docs). Zero configuration — add it to any MCP host, or install the native plugin for Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, Codex or Gemini CLI. It manages everything automatically.

Production-ready, battle-tested on enterprise-level large repositories (up to and over ~40 million lines of code). Batched, automatic resumable indexing checkpoints progress — pauses, crashes, restarts, and interruptions don't lose work. The file watcher keeps the index automatically updated at every file change and across sessions. Multi-agent ready — multiple AI agents can work on the same codebase simultaneously, sharing a single index with automatic coordination and zero configuration.

Private and local by default — Docker handles everything, no API keys required, no data leaves your machine. Cloud ready for embeddings (OpenAI, Google Gemini) and Qdrant, and a full suite of configuration options are all available when you need them.

☁️ SocratiCode Cloud (private beta) — Hosted, shared team index built on the same engine as the open-source version, plus SSO, audit logs, branch-aware indexing, and VPC / air-gapped deployment options. The open-source core remains free forever. Request early access →

The first Qdrant‑based MCP/Claude Plugin/Skill that pairs auto‑managed, zero‑config local Docker deployment with AST‑aware code chunking, hybrid semantic + BM25 (RRF‑fused) code search, polyglot dependency graphs with circular‑dependency visualization, and searchable infra/API/database artifacts in a single focused, zero-config and easy to use code intelligence engine.
