About CodeRAG

🔎 CodeRAG A standalone, local-first semantic code-search engine for large and custom codebases. CodeRAG indexes a whole codebase into a hybrid (vector + keyword) search index and answers questions like "where is retry/backoff handled?" with the exact functions, classes, and files that matter — ranked by meaning, not just string match. It runs entirely on your machine with no API key (a local ONNX embedding model is the default), keeps its index up to date as you edit, and is built to stay fast on large codebases. Use it from the CLI, embed it as a Python library, self-host it as an HTTP service, or browse with the web UI. Built for the cases off-the-shelf IDE assistants don't cover well: a codebase that's too big, too private, or too custom — or a search/RAG capability you want to own and embed in your own tools. ✨ Highlights Local-first, zero-key. Default embeddings run locally via fastembed (ONNX, no PyTorch). OpenAI is optional. Symbol-aware chunking. Indexes functions, classes,
