Filesift

FileSift is a local, open-source utility designed for AI coding agents to enable intelligent, intent-based search and understanding within codebases. It combines keyword and semantic search to help agents (and developers) quickly locate relevant code by function, using natural language queries, instead of relying solely on keyword matching. FileSift is well suited for AI agent integration (via MCP server or skills), CLI usage, and anyone needing smarter code search that preserves privacy by running locally.
