Sensegrep

Overview

Sensegrep is an MCP server that brings semantic and structural code search to AI-native development. Any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call Sensegrep's tools directly, letting the model decide when to search your codebase during conversations or agent runs.

It runs locally via the npm package @sensegrep/mcp, which communicates over stdio. Install with npx -y @sensegrep/mcp. The server requires an API Key for authentication. Version v1.5.3 is the latest release, published under the Apache-2.0 license with source code available at Stahldavid/sensegrep on GitHub.

Sensegrep is a Development tool on mcp.site that works with all MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed and others. If you maintain Sensegrep, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information current.
