SourceMinder

sourceminder.orgInfrastructure

SourceMinder is a set of local CLI tools that create token-efficient indexes of codebases using specialized index-lang commands. Users can then query the index with the qi tool to find symbols, expand definitions, generate tables of contents, and perform wildcard or filtered searches across multiple languages. It significantly reduces token consumption for LLM agents while providing fast local search without cloud dependencies.
