Done some work fixing some of these issues. Please do raise issues when you find them and I'll get them fixed! (author)

Sadly, not great support for Elixir from tree-sitter but it should handle them generically as text files

Ruby support has been added!

Nice catch- should be fixed in latest

Added Ruby, but Elixir not very well supported by tree sitter

interesting - can I ask you to try a ck --index . ?

BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5 but considering switching this to google's latest gemmaembedding - it's fairly switchable.

we all know rust CLI tools are better right?

I'll add rust, ruby, elixir, Clojure next. It says rust as it's written in rust, sorry about that!

Mainly I wrote it because I noticed Claude's "by design" use of grep meant it couldn't search the code base for things it didn't already know the name of, or find "the auth section". But equally, it'

Fair comment- the initial thinking was to have both and in fact a hybrid mode too which fuses results so you can get chunks that match both semantically and on keyword search in one resultset. Later could add a reranker too.

Yes- files are hashed and checked whenever you search so index should always remain up to date. Only changed files are reindexed. You can also inspect the metadata (chunking semantics, embeddings). It’s all in the .ck sidecar

It supports most languages but needs a bit of tree-sitter setup to do semantic chunking. Let me know what languages you’d like added

To start with just tell it- but yes Claude.md works too. “We have a new grep semantic hybrid tool installed called ck - check it out using ck --help and take it for a spin”

by Runonthespot 1y ago
Note that it’s grep AND semantic - so Claude can start with a grep strategy and if it finds nothing can switch to semantic, and since it’s local and fast, it keeps in sync easily enough

bear in mind that Claude Code by default uses grep - if you watch you'll see if it's looking for something it doesn't know the name of, it flails around with different patterns. Try this tool, tell CC to take a look using ck

Agreed - Logan is a legend, this is similar but simpler - no dependency on external models (might add it)

help make it mature :D Add any issues
