Smarter Context for Large Codebases

Quickstart

Visit the Wildcard DeepContext page
Click "Generate API Key"
Copy your API key
Paste installation command for your MCP client
Type index this codebase to index the current directory

Claude Code:

claude mcp add deepcontext \
  -e WILDCARD_API_KEY=your-wildcard-api-key \
  -- npx @wildcard-ai/deepcontext@latest

Codex:

# Add to ~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.deepcontext]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@wildcard-ai/deepcontext@latest"]
env = { "WILDCARD_API_KEY" = "your-wildcard-api-key" }

Why DeepContext MCP?

Most coding agents use grep based search that match exact text, these searches miss semantically related code and fill context windows with irrelevant results. Large codebases amplify this problem, where text search returns hundreds of matches that quickly overwhelm conversation capacity. This leads to slow completions, more hallucinations, and lower success rates.

DeepContext provides agents with intelligent search that preserves context windows by finding only relevant code chunks.

Semantic accuracy: Matches code by meaning and relationships rather than text patterns, finding related functions across files that keyword search misses.
Reduced token usage: Returns precise code chunks instead of every file containing your search terms, preserving conversation context windows and reducing costs.
Search speed: Searches code immediately through pre-indexed data for instant file discovery.

MCP Tools

`index_codebase`

Creates a searchable index of your codebase for semantic search.

`search_codebase`

Finds relevant code using natural language or keyword queries.

`get_indexing_status`

Shows indexing status and file counts for your codebases.

`clear_index`

Removes all indexed data for a codebase.

Architecture

MCP Integration Flow

Coding Agent communicates with DeepContext through the Model Context Protocol
MCP server receives requests, validates parameters, and routes to appropriate core components
For long-running operations like indexing, spawns detached background processes to prevent timeouts
- Background workers handle large codebases without blocking MCP channel // Reword

AST-Based Parsing

Tree-sitter parsers analyze source code to build Abstract Syntax Trees
- Python, TypeScript, and JavaScript language grammars for accurate parsing
- Semantic node identification for functions, classes, interfaces, and modules
Symbol extraction identifies functions, classes, interfaces, types, variables, and constants
- Scope analysis determines local vs exported vs global visibility
- Para
