SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Navigating large C# codebases can be tedious and error-prone. Sharpitect's semantic MCP tools streamline code navigation, type hierarchies, and usage analysis, reducing time spent searching and analyzing dependencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Semantic search: Find declarations by name and kind using search_declarations with accurate C# understanding.
  • Hierarchy exploration: Inspect inheritance and interfaces with get_inheritance (direction: ancestors/descendants).
  • Usage & relation tracing: Find callers, usages, and callee relationships with get_callers/get_usages/get_callees.

Quick Start

To get started:

  • Run search_declarations(query="GraphSolution", kind="class")
  • Run get_inheritance(id="...", direction="descendants")
  • Run get_callers(id="...", depth=1)

FAQPage Schema
How do I find method declarations and usages across a large C# codebase?

Sharpitect's semantic search resolves declarations by name and kind, then locates all callers and usages of methods and types. Use search_declarations to find the target, then get_callers and get_usages to trace where it's referenced throughout your .NET project.

Can I explore inheritance hierarchies and understand type relationships in C#?

Yes. Sharpitect's get_inheritance tool navigates ancestor and descendant relationships in your type hierarchy. Combine it with get_relationships and get_dependencies to map how classes, interfaces, and dependencies connect across your codebase.

What's the best way to locate all callers of a specific C# method?

Use Sharpitect's get_callers tool with a method's semantic ID and optional depth parameter. It returns the full call chain, showing which methods invoke your target and how deep those dependencies reach.

How do I analyze dependencies and dependent code in a .NET project?

Sharpitect's get_dependencies and get_dependents tools map what your code depends on and what depends on it. Pair these with get_relationships to build a complete dependency graph of your C# codebase.

Do I need special tooling to navigate C# code semantically, or can I use standard search?

Standard text search misses semantic relationships. Sharpitect's MCP tools understand C# syntax, type resolution, and inheritance, so they find accurate matches for declarations, overrides, and interface implementations that plain grep cannot.

What's the fastest way to understand how a C# class is used throughout a project?

Search for the class declaration with search_declarations, then run get_usages to see every reference, and get_callers on its methods to trace instantiation and invocation patterns across your entire .NET solution.
