Code Finder: fast, efficient code search for coding agents
Blog post from Sourcegraph
Code Finder, a search tool available in Beta on the Sourcegraph MCP server, optimizes the process of locating specific files and line ranges in a code repository by running its own search loop and providing concise, relevant results for coding agents. This approach significantly reduces the time and cost compared to traditional methods where coding agents perform their own searches, as Code Finder offers a focused response that allows agents to proceed with their tasks more efficiently. Tests show that Code Finder completes tasks more than twice as fast and up to 40% cheaper than agents using local or other MCP tools, without compromising result quality. The tool's efficiency is attributed to its specialized design for searching, which contrasts with the broader capabilities of general coding agents. Available for free during its Beta phase, Code Finder enhances file discovery within Deep Search and can be integrated with a user's own agent by connecting to the Sourcegraph MCP Server.
