CodeDB launches ultra-fast Zig MCP codebase server

CodeDB is a high-performance code intelligence server written in Zig that exposes 16 specialized tools via the Model Context Protocol. It solves the context bottleneck by letting AI agents query codebases for trees, outlines, and symbols with sub-millisecond latency.

// ANALYSIS

CodeDB shifts agents from slow text searches to structured, database-like codebase queries.

–Zig core delivers sub-millisecond query latency and 1,000x faster searches than ripgrep
–Exposes 16 MCP tools including fast file trees, structural outlines, and global symbol lookups
–Returns structured JSON data instead of raw text, reducing LLM token usage by up to 1,600x
–Remote capability allows agents to instantly query public GitHub repositories without local cloning
