Overview

What is Code Pathfinder?

Code Pathfinder is an open-source MCP server that transforms AI coding assistants into code intelligence tools through deep semantic analysis. It provides call graph analysis, symbol search, dependency tracking, and dataflow analysis, running 100% locally on your machine.

How to use Code Pathfinder?

Install via Homebrew, pip, Chocolatey, or Docker, then add a simple JSON configuration to your AI assistant’s MCP config file. The server works with tools like Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode.

Frequently asked questions

What runtime or dependencies does Code Pathfinder require?

It currently supports Python (pip install) and is available via Homebrew, Docker, and Chocolatey for other platforms.

Does my source code leave my machine?

No. All analysis runs 100% locally; your code never leaves your development machine.

Is Code Pathfinder free and open-source?

Yes, it is fully free and open-source under the AGPL-3.0 license.

How is Code Pathfinder different from text-based search tools like grep?

It performs multi-pass Abstract Syntax Tree analysis for deep semantic understanding, not just text pattern matching.

What languages does it support now and in the future?

Currently supports Python. Expansion to JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, and Java is planned.
