Local-first code intelligence for coding agents. Index your own repositories with SCIP and Zoekt, then let the agent ask structural questions — who calls this?, where is this defined? — instead of guessing from grep.

Everything runs on your machine. No code leaves it, no telemetry, no account.

This repo is the public distribution surface: the Homebrew tap and formula, the optional language-tooling installer, the plugins, the binary release assets, and the issue tracker. It holds no source — see Why this repo exists.

What you get

Ten MCP tools, exposed to any MCP client:

	Tool	Answers
Navigate	goToDefinition	Where is X defined?
	findReferences	Everywhere X is used
	callHierarchy	What calls X, and what X calls
	typeHierarchy	Super/subtypes of X
	documentSymbols	Every symbol in a file
Search	searchCode	Lexical search across indexed repos (Zoekt)
	semanticSearch	Registered for compatibility; unavailable in the Homebrew distribution
Scope	blastRadius	Which other indexed repos depend on this package
	indexRepo	Builds an index for a local git repo and returns immediately for polling
	getIndexStatus	Is this repo indexed, and is the index stale?

Plus three agent skills that ship with the plugin: jarvis-setup (onboarding), jarvis-use (steers the agent toward structural queries over grep), and jarvis-issues (files well-formed bug reports).

Full signatures and return shapes: plugin/skills/jarvis-use/references/tool-roster.md.

Quick start

# 1. Install the standalone binary and MCP server
brew install jarvis-intelligence/jarvis/jarvis

# 2. Verify
jarvis --version                    # expect: jarvis 0.11.0

# 3. Index a repo (slug defaults to the directory name)
jarvis index /path/to/your/repo

# 4. Verify
jarvis status <slug>                # expect: indexed

Then install the plugin below to register jarvis-server and install the agent skills.

Install as a plugin

The plugin bundles the MCP registration and all three skills, so there is no manual mcp add.

Client	How
Claude Code	/plugin marketplace add jarvis-intelligence/jarvis-index /plugin install jarvis@jarvis
Codex CLI	codex plugin marketplace add https://github.com/jarvis-intelligence/jarvis-index --ref main codex plugin add jarvis
Cursor	Dashboard → Plugins → Add Marketplace → Import from Repo (Teams/Enterprise) or clone and ln -s "$PWD/jarvis-index/plugin" ~/.cursor/plugins/local/jarvis
Other MCP clients	Point them at the stdio command jarvis-server

The plugin launches the Homebrew-installed jarvis-server. If needed, install optional language-specific SCIP tooling afterward with the setup skill's --only commands.

Details, Homebrew limits, and privacy notes: plugin/README.md.

Requirements

• macOS or Linux with Homebrew/Linuxbrew. Windows is not supported.
• jarvis 0.11.0 installed by brew install jarvis-intelligence/jarvis/jarvis.
• java on PATH only if you index Java/Kotlin repos.

Language support

One language per index — a polyglot repo indexes only its plurality language.

Language	Indexer	Notes
TypeScript / JavaScript	scip-typescript
Python	scip-python
Swift	scip-swift	macOS arm64 only; pass --scheme if the Xcode project has several
Java / Kotlin	scip-java	Android/Gradle projects and repos off the pinned Kotlin version are published search-only — lexical search works, SCIP navigation does not, and semanticSearch is unavailable in the Homebrew distribution

Why this repo exists

jarvis's development repo is private, and GitHub serves raw files and release assets only to viewers of the owning repo. An unauthenticated curl against a private repo's setup.sh 404s — which is every real user. So every user-facing install path lives here, in public:

• optional language-tooling installer, fetchable by anyone
• the Homebrew tap and formula
• the Claude Code / Codex / Cursor plugins
• the scip and zoekt binaries, as GitHub release assets
• the issue tracker

Repo layout

setup.sh              optional language-tooling installer — SYNCED from the dev repo, do not edit here
plugin/               The plugin: skills, MCP config, assets — source of truth, edit directly

Editing this repo

Path	Rule
setup.sh	Never edit here. The optional language-tooling installer is published automatically from the development repo and overwritten on the next release. Fix it upstream.
everything else	Source of truth is here — edit directly.

Any change under plugin/ must bump the version in all three plugin manifests, to the same value, or it reaches nobody: plugin/.claude-plugin/plugin.json, plugin/.cursor-plugin/plugin.json, .codex-plugin/plugin.json. Plugin 0.11.1 versions independently of the Homebrew jarvis CLI.
