AI coding assistants hallucinate APIs. They suggest deprecated methods, wrong signatures, or functions that don't exist—because their training data is stale. Index fixes this. It indexes your actual dependencies locally, creating a semantic search layer over every function, class, and type. Ask natural questions like "how do I stream responses" and get the exact method with current signatures and docs. Ships as a CLI and MCP server. Point Claude Code at it and watch hallucinations disappear.
Hey PH! I built Index to solve a friction point I kept hitting with AI coding assistants.
When you're working with libraries that have sparse documentation, recent API changes, or just weren't well-represented in training data—AI assistants struggle. They'll suggest methods that don't exist in your version, or miss the idiomatic patterns entirely.
The fix: let the AI search your actual dependency source before writing code. Index parses your dependencies (npm, pip, cargo), builds a local semantic index, and exposes it via MCP.
Now when Claude Code needs to use a library, it searches the index first and gets real function signatures from your exact installed version. Works especially well for newer libraries, niche packages, or anything with fast-moving APIs.
Curious what libraries give your AI tools the most trouble—would love to hear.
