Access and checks
How we reviewExtended accessThe tool runs code or makes network calls and only reads external data.
- Reads and indexes code files
- Runs a local service and configures the agents
This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.
What it does
Gortex indexes code into a graph and serves precise answers through a CLI, an MCP server and an HTTP API. It supports many languages via syntax parsing and works across several repositories at once. The agent gets only what it needs: symbol lookup, call chains, the blast radius of a change, dataflow and clone detection, instead of reading every file. It runs locally, installs via a script, and an init command configures the coding assistants found on the machine.
Who it is for. For developers and coding agents that need precise search over a large codebase without extra context.
Good fit when
- The agent spends too much context reading code
- You need to know the blast radius of a change before editing
- You need symbol and call-chain search across several repositories
Not a fit when
- The project is small and clear without an index
- You need to run code rather than analyze it
Example request
With Gortex show what a change to this function affects and find all its call sitesMCP
- Transport
- stdio, http
- Authentication
- not required
Limitations
The index has to be built and refreshed, which takes time and space on a large codebase. It runs locally, so it depends on the machine's resources.
How to disable. Remove the gortex binary and the MCP settings added by the init command in the agents' directories.
FAQ
How does the agent connect to Gortex?
The gortex init command writes an .mcp.json in the project and the agent talks to the engine over MCP; a CLI and HTTP API are also available.
How many languages are supported?
Parsing covers hundreds of languages and grammars via syntax analysis.

README in short
The README describes Gortex as a graph-based code-intelligence engine accessed via a CLI, MCP server and HTTP API. It installs with a script, an install command sets up MCP, skills and slash commands, and init connects the engine to a specific repository. It lists MCP tools: symbol lookup, call chains, blast radius, dataflow, clone detection and refactoring. It claims support for many languages and multiple repositories.
