osgrep is a tool for natural-language search that works like grep. Fast, local, and built for coding agents.
This is free and open source software.
Features include:
- Semantic: Finds concepts (“where do transactions get created?”), not just strings.
- Local & Private: 100% local embeddings via transformers.js.
- Auto-Isolated: Each repository gets its own index automatically.
- Bounded Concurrency: Runs efficiently with capped thread usage.
- Agent-Ready: Native integration with Claude Code.
