# Headless Codebase Indexer

> Use this tool when you need to efficiently navigate and understand large codebases, and enable AI agents to perform semantic searches and track definitions and references. It solves problems of codebase complexity and discoverability by providing vector embeddings and native language server capabilities. Ideal for use cases where autonomous agents require deep code understanding, such as automated code review, bug tracking, and code optimization.
