# CodeExplorer (ce)

> Make AI coding agents production-safe. AI agents see files, not architecture. CodeExplorer gives your agents and engineers a live cross-service map of every API, queue, and database in VS Code & MCP—plus hard architectural guardrails in CI, powered by a 100% local SQLite OpenCypher graph.

## Get started

- Install (NuGet global tool): `dotnet tool install -g codeexplorer.cli`
- Install (Homebrew): `brew install vmikhailov/tap/ce`
- Index a repository: `ce scan --init`
- Query the graph: `ce query "MATCH (p:Project) RETURN p.name"`
- Run as an MCP server (stdio): `ce mcp` — see the [MCP server card](https://code-explorer.app/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json)
