CKB uses **SCIP indexes** to understand your code. Think of it like a database that knows where every function is defined, who calls it, and how everything connects.

### The Basics
|

|
|
|
274

-
|
|
275
|
-
|
|
276
|
-
|
|
277
|
-
| `getModuleResponsibilities` | What does this module do? |
|
|
278
|
-
| `recordDecision` | Create an ADR |
|
|
279
|
-
| `getDecisions` | Query architectural decisions |
|
|
280
|
-
| `annotateModule` | Add module metadata |
|
|
281
|
-
| `refreshArchitecture` | Rebuild architectural model |
|
|

```bash
|
|
179
|
+
# 1. Generate an index (auto-detects language)
|
|
180
|
+
ckb index
|
|
282
181
|
|
|
283
|
-
|
|
182
|
+
# 2. Check if your index is fresh
|
|
183
|
+
ckb status
|
|
184
|
+
```
|
|
284
185
|
|
|
285
|
-
|
|
286
|
-
|
|
186
|
+
Without an index, CKB still works using tree-sitter parsing (basic mode), but with an index you get:
|
|
187
|
+
- Cross-file references ("who calls this function?")
|
|
188
|
+
- Precise impact analysis
|
|
189
|
+
- Call graph navigation

| `getJobStatus` | Query background job status |
|

|
-
| `listJobs` | List jobs with filters |

Not all languages are equal. CKB classifies languages into **quality tiers** based on indexer maturity:

| Tier | Quality | Languages |
|
|
196
|
+
|------|---------|-----------|
|
|
197
|
+
| **Tier 1** | Full support, all features | Go |
|
|
198
|
+
| **Tier 2** | Full support, minor edge cases | TypeScript, JavaScript, Python |
|
|
199
|
+
| **Tier 3** | Basic support, call graph may be incomplete | Rust, Java, Kotlin, C++, Ruby, Dart |
|
|
200
|
+
| **Tier 4** | Experimental | C#, PHP |
|
|
321
201
|
|
|
322
|
-
|
|
202
|
+
**Key limitations:**
|
|
203
|
+
- **Incremental indexing** is Go-only. Other languages require full reindex.
|
|
204
|
+
- **TypeScript monorepos** may need `--infer-tsconfig` flag
|
|
205
|
+
- **C/C++** requires `compile_commands.json`
|
|
206
|
+
- **Python** works best with activated virtual environment

## CLI Usage
|
|
223
|
+
**Quick start for AI sessions:**
|
|
224
|
+
```bash
|
|
225
|
+
ckb mcp --watch # Auto-reindexes every 30s when stale
|
|
226
|
+
```
|
|
365
227
|
|
|
228
|
+
**Check staleness:**
|
|
366
229
|
```bash
|
|
367
|
-
# System status
|
|
368
230
|
ckb status
|
|
231
|
+
# Shows: "5 commits behind HEAD" or "Up to date"
|
|
232
|
+
```
|
|
369
233
|
|
|
370
|
-
|
|
371
|
-
ckb search NewServer
|
|
234
|
+
For Go projects, CKB uses **incremental indexing**—only changed files are processed, making updates fast.
|
|
372
235
|
|
|
373
|
-
|
|
374
|
-
ckb refs NewServer
|
|

## Limitations (Honest Take)
|
|
536
|
+
|
|
537
|
+
**CKB excels at:**
|
|
538
|
+
- Static code navigation—finding definitions, references, call graphs
|
|
539
|
+
- Impact analysis for safe refactoring
|
|
540
|
+
- Ownership lookup (CODEOWNERS + git blame)
|
|
541
|
+
- Architecture and module understanding
|
|
542
|
+
|
|
543
|
+
**CKB won't help with:**
|
|
544
|
+
- Dynamic dispatch / runtime behavior (use debugger)
|
|
545
|
+
- Generated code that isn't indexed
|
|
546
|
+
- Code generation, linting, or formatting
|
|
547
|
+
- Cross-repo calls (use [federation](https://github.com/SimplyLiz/CodeMCP/wiki/Federation) for this)
|
|
548
|
+
|
|
549
|
+
> CKB is static analysis, not magic. Always verify critical decisions by reading the actual code.
