Local-first hybrid semantic code search with pgvector + Ollama embeddings. CLI, MCP server, and web dashboard for 30+ languages.
Coco-Search is worth checking the docs before setup with trust notes worth reviewing. Check agent compatibility and use-case fit before adding it to your workflow.
Repository setup guidance
gh repo view VioletCranberry/coco-search --webOpen the official repository or website.
Check the README for package manager, auth, and platform requirements.
Try it in a small test task inside your agent workflow.
Coco-Search gives AI agents semantic understanding of your codebase — they can find relevant code by meaning, not just keywords. It combines traditional search with vector embeddings for highly accurate results across 30+ programming languages.
Coco-Search is a local-first code search engine built for AI coding workflows. It uses pgvector for storing embeddings and Ollama for generating them locally. Features include a CLI, MCP server integration (so AI agents can search your code directly), and a web dashboard. Supports over 30 programming languages with semantic understanding.
Looks usable, but maintenance, license, or security notes deserve a closer look.
