Which programming languages does ast-index support?▼

It supports over 30 languages including Kotlin, Java, Swift, TypeScript, JavaScript, Rust, Python, Go, C#, PHP, Ruby, and Dart, with automatic project type detection.

Does ast-index work with Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex?▼

Yes. It ships as a plugin and skill for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and Gemini CLI, teaching agents to use structural search instead of slow text grep.
