retrieval-mcp
Context-efficient code retrieval MCP server for coding agents. It provides a small measured four-tool surface over a repository root, using ripgrep-linked search and in-memory structural snapshots without an index database, daemon, API key, or embedding service by default. Public GitHub repository created September 12, 2026.
