Martin Vogelanddarkverbito 706bb2ce81 feat(lang): add Chialisp support with a first-party tree-sitter grammar
Chialisp (.clsp/.clib/.clinc) is the Chia smart-coin language. The only
public grammar, Quexington/tree-sitter-chialisp, cannot parse it: on the five
reference files from chia-blockchain@main it produced 3-34 ERROR nodes each.
Three defects account for all of them, and each desynchronised the rest of the
file rather than losing one node:

  * comments were `/;.*\r\n/` -- CRLF-only, while real files are LF;
  * `(include foo.clib)` was rejected because of the dot in the filename;
  * `(defconstant NAME <expr>)` accepted only a primitive after the name.

So the grammar is written here instead, in tools/tree-sitter-chialisp/, and
files as first-party: its vendored LICENSE is the project's own, byte-identical
to the repository root, carrying no third-party copyright.

It is deliberately GENERIC -- source_file / list / symbol / string / number /
hex / dot / comment, modelling the clvm_tools reader rather than the Chialisp
form vocabulary. `mod`, `defun`, `defconstant` and `include` are ordinary head
symbols; which lists are definitions is decided in extract_defs.c. A dialect
that adds a form (cl-21 -> cl-23 -> cl-26 each added several) therefore needs
no regenerated parser. Acceptance: all five reference files parse with zero
ERROR and zero MISSING nodes; the three defects above are pinned as tests.

Extraction, and the four decisions in it:

  * `Constant` is admitted to the cross-file name registry
    (cbm_label_is_registry_symbol). Chialisp's condition codes live as
    `(defconstant ...)` in a shared .clib and are referenced by name from every
    puzzle; labelled but unregistered they are seeded nowhere, and roughly half
    of a Chialisp graph would be present as nodes yet never the target of an
    edge. All three registry-seeding sites route through that one predicate, so
    they cannot diverge. No other language emits `Constant`, so the blast radius
    is exactly Chialisp. Pinned by a two-file graph test that goes red when the
    label is removed from the predicate.
  * `export` / `namespace` are NOT definition heads. `(export foo)` names a
    function already defined in the same file, so treating it as a def head
    mints a second node for one symbol. They stay in the not-a-call filter.
  * A parameter list is a `list` too, but it binds rather than invokes. Without
    that gate `(defun check_conditions (HEIGHTLOCK conditions) ...)` mints a
    phantom call to HEIGHTLOCK, and real Chialisp is mostly such definitions.
  * `(include *standard-cl-26*)` is a dialect directive, not a file dependency;
    recording it would invent a dependency on a file that does not exist.

Three helpers that the defs, calls and unified walks all need -- the quote-data
gate, comment-skipping named-child access, and the Chialisp def-head set -- live
in helpers.c rather than being copied per translation unit. They previously
existed as byte-identical duplicates that had already drifted: extract_defs.c
skipped comments when reading a def head while its mirror in extract_unified.c
did not, so a comment between a head and its name desynchronised defs from call
scope. Both now use the same accessor.

Ledger: 161 -> 162 grammars across the seven published surfaces, ABI-14 86 -> 87,
first-party 13 -> 14, CBM_LANG_COUNT 164 -> 165.

Distilled from PR #919 by darkverbito, whose extraction logic -- the CLVM
not-a-call vocabulary, the quoted-data gate, the filename-derived `mod` name and
the include/embed import handling -- is kept and is the substance of this change.
The grammar that PR vendored is not used.

# codebase-memory-mcp
> An open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that indexes a codebase into a persistent knowledge graph of functions, classes, call chains, HTTP routes, and cross-service links. AI coding agents query the graph instead of reading files one by one, answering structural questions with roughly 120x fewer tokens (~3,400 vs ~412,000 across five structural queries). Parses 162 languages via vendored tree-sitter grammars, with Hybrid LSP semantic type resolution for Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, PHP, C#, Go, C/C++, Java, Kotlin, and Rust. It also generates semantic graph edges (SEMANTICALLY_RELATED for vocabulary-mismatch matches, SIMILAR_TO for near-clone detection) and supports semantic vector search via bundled nomic-embed-code embeddings compiled into the native executable — no API key, no Ollama, no Docker. Ships a native executable with an authenticated integration asset; the UI variant adds one content-addressed frontend pack. All processing is local — the embeddings run on-device; there is no embedded LLM and no API key.
## Key facts
- License: MIT, open source.
- Languages: 158 (158 vendored tree-sitter grammars compiled into the binary).
- Hybrid LSP type resolution: 9 language families (Python, TypeScript/JavaScript/JSX/TSX, PHP, C#, Go, C/C++, Java, Kotlin, Rust) — a lightweight C implementation of language type-resolution algorithms, structurally inspired by and compatible with major language servers including tsserver, pyright, gopls, Roslyn, Eclipse JDT, and rust-analyzer.
- MCP tools: 15 (search_graph incl. semantic_query vector search, trace_path (alias: trace_call_path), check_index_coverage, query_graph (Cypher), detect_changes, get_architecture, get_code_snippet, manage_adr, and more).
- Semantic search: natural-language code discovery via bundled nomic-embed-code embeddings (768-dim, compiled into the binary); 11-signal combined scoring; fully local, no API key.
- Semantic & similarity edges: SEMANTICALLY_RELATED (vocabulary-mismatch matches) and SIMILAR_TO (MinHash + LSH near-clone / duplicate detection).
- Cross-repo intelligence: CROSS_* edges link nodes across multiple repos indexed in one store; multi-galaxy 3D layout and cross-repo architecture summary.
- Cross-service linking: HTTP route ↔ call-site matching, plus gRPC/GraphQL/tRPC detection and pub/sub channels (EMITS/LISTENS_ON for Socket.IO, EventEmitter, generic buses).
- Supported agents: 45 automatic/conditional client surfaces (39 automatically detected + 6 conditional/explicit): Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Zed, OpenCode, Antigravity, Aider, KiloCode, VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Augment / Auggie, OpenClaw, Kiro, Junie, Hermes, OpenHands, Cline, Warp, Qwen Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, Factory Droid, Crush, Goose, Mistral Vibe, Grok Build, Qoder CLI, Kimi Code CLI, GitLab Duo CLI, Rovo Dev CLI, Amp, Devin CLI / Local, Tabnine, Continue / cn, Visual Studio, TRAE, Roo Code, Amazon Q Developer IDE, CodeBuddy Code CLI, IBM Bob IDE, IBM Bob Shell, Pochi, Pi, Oh My Pi (omp), and Sourcegraph Cody.
- Agent profiles: documented custom-agent formats receive Scout (fast/provisional), Verify (default/task-directed), and Auditor (bounded/full verification) definitions. Every direct tier checks exact path/scope coverage with check_index_coverage and falls back to source for flagged gaps; unsafe child-MCP formats use explicit parent handoff. Kiro and Junie use positive-allowlist Scout/Analysis server profiles (7/11 tools); Qoder combines named-server selection with exact tier-specific MCP tool IDs, while Factory uses exact registered IDs without additive whole-server exposure. Foreign Junie aliases are preserved and force parent handoff.
- Performance: Linux kernel (28M LOC, 75K files) full index in 3 minutes → 4.81M nodes, 7.72M edges; Cypher queries in under 1ms.
- Distribution: verified runtime set (native executable plus authenticated release-owned assets); fully static Linux builds are available in the `-portable` archives. Also available through npm, PyPI, Homebrew, Scoop, Winget, Chocolatey, AUR, and `go install`.
