Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Synapse Code MCP Tools (5)

get_project_tree

Returns a structured tree view of the project repository, respecting .gitignore rules.

get_semantic_context

Returns the content of a file along with its local dependency tree, providing rich context for understanding the code.

search_codebase

Searches the codebase for text or regex patterns, returning matches with file paths and line numbers.

get_changed_files

Returns a list of files changed since a git ref (default: HEAD~1), grouped by status (added/modified/deleted). Optionally includes the full unified diff. Use this to understand what changed in a branch or commit.

get_project_index

Returns a compressed semantic map of the entire project: all exported functions, classes, interfaces, and types with their signatures — no implementation bodies. Ideal for getting an overview of a large codebase in a single call (~500 tokens). Call this first when exploring an unfamiliar project.
