Why does an AI agent search code incorrectly, and how does cocoindex-code fix it in two commands?

▤ Summary

This article introduces cocoindex-code, a CLI tool that helps AI agents search code more accurately than simple grep-style queries. It compares the tool with AST-based and code graph approaches and explains how it uses incremental indexing, embeddings, and tree-sitter-based parsing. The piece also highlights setup paths for local and API-based embedding models, plus support for MCP and Claude Code workflows. The launch targets developers who want better code navigation, faster repository search, and easier AI-assisted coding.
