Release Notes

Added

  • 7 new MCP tools (15 → 22): graph_stats (per-kind node/edge counts),
    ast_search (structural filter by kind/async/visibility/complexity/annotation),
    type_hierarchy (supertypes + subtypes), find_importers, find_type_usages,
    module_dependencies, and get_call_sites (caller + exact call line).
  • Semantic search — local embeddings (AllMiniLM-L6-v2 via fastembed),
    merged into search_code with graceful text-only fallback.
  • Richer graph data: cyclomatic complexity (all 5 languages),
    decorator/annotation metadata (queryable even for external decorators),
    exact call-site lines, and edge confidence (extracted vs inferred).
  • Configurable response token budget (GCX_RESPONSE_BUDGET, default 2000) —
    every list tool truncates to fit, so a high-fan-out symbol never out-costs grep.
  • No-seed start_tour now emits a component-level architecture summary
    (files grouped by directory, key symbols with file:line, cross-component deps).

Changed

  • Search rewrite: CamelCase/snake_case tokenisation, token-overlap scoring,
    Levenshtein typo tolerance, revised ranking ladder (exact > prefix > semantic

    substring).

  • Rust files now get a file-level module node (consistent with the other 4
    languages) so imports attach to a real node.
  • Schema version 6 → 11 (auto-wipes + re-indexes on first run).
  • Honest benchmark methodology: median-of-N with rate-limit retries,
    throttling, and errored-session exclusion. Reported result is a net
    +7.7 % token saving (geomean 1.06×), with search_code at 1.30× and ~half
    the turns of grep — replacing earlier single-run numbers that were too noisy.

Fixed

  • Rust Imports edges were silently dropped (placeholder source id → dangling
    edge); they now attach to the file module node and persist.
  • Search handled neither space-separated multi-token queries nor typos.
  • Semantic search hits were resolved by name instead of id, dropping every hit.
