osgrep is a local, grep-like semantic search CLI for codebases, built for AI coding agents. It uses local embeddings (ColBERT via onnxruntime-node) to answer natural-language queries and trace call graphs, with plugins for Claude Code and OpenCode.

Use cases

• semantic code search with natural language queries
• find where authentication is handled in a codebase
• trace function call graphs for impact analysis
• reduce LLM token usage when agents explore code
• index repositories locally for private code search
• list symbols and code roles in a project

When to choose

• you want grep-style speed but semantic, concept-level code search
• you need fully local, private embeddings without cloud APIs
• you use Claude Code or OpenCode and want agent-ready search output
• you need call graph tracing and symbol role detection

When to avoid

• you only need exact string matching that plain grep already handles
• you cannot spare ~150MB for local embedding models
• you need cloud-scale search across many remote repositories
