Why we included this project
Coding agents waste context when they grep for keywords and read whole files just to track down a few relevant functions. Semble builds a local index instead, so a natural-language question like "how is authentication handled?" returns the matching snippets rather than a wall of source. A full codebase indexes in well under a second on CPU, with no API keys or GPU, and the project's own benchmarks claim retrieval quality close to much heavier transformer-based search at a fraction of the token cost. You can wire it in as an MCP server, a CLI hooked into AGENTS.md, or a dedicated sub-agent, and it plugs into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, and similar tools. For teams that want cheaper, faster code navigation inside their existing agent setup, it is a practical drop-in.
