CodeSeeker v1.8.0 - Code Quality Tools & Project Detection Fix

New MCP Tools

find_duplicates

Detect duplicate and similar code patterns across your codebase using semantic analysis.

find_duplicates({
  project: "/path/to/project",
  threshold: 0.8  // similarity threshold (0.0-1.0)
})

Returns:

• Similarity scores between code chunks
• File paths and line numbers
• Duplicate detection using hash comparison and semantic similarity

find_dead_code

Identify unused code through knowledge graph analysis.

find_dead_code({
  project: "/path/to/project"
})

Detects:

• Orphan functions/classes with no incoming references
• God classes with too many methods
• Returns confidence scores and suggested actions

Bug Fixes

Project Auto-Detection Fix

Fixed critical bug where CodeSeeker would search the wrong index when multiple projects are indexed.

Root cause: MCP servers cannot detect the client's working directory (process.cwd() returns the server's directory, not Claude's workspace).

Solution:

• Now requires explicit project parameter when multiple projects exist
• Returns clear error message listing available projects
• Single-project scenarios still work with auto-detection

Added

• MCP Registry support: CodeSeeker now listed in the official MCP Registry
• GitHub Actions release workflow: Automated publishing to npm, Homebrew, Chocolatey, Snap, and MCP Registry

Changed

• Snap confinement: Changed from classic to strict confinement for better security
