Use the appropriate MCP tool. For broad queries, start with tags or search, then drill into specific artifacts.

npx claudepluginhub phibkro/vevx --plugin kisteProvides semantic search, grep, and call graph tracing across CodeAlive-indexed codebases. Use to search code, fetch artifacts, or query data sources.
Navigates large codebases via an MCP server providing outlines, symbol search, references, callers, git history, blame, and diffs without reading source files.
Searches prior work, checkpoints, and agent conversations by topic, repo, branch, author, or recent time window. Useful when a user wants to find past implementations or context from other sessions.
