Code intelligence platform giving humans and AI agents full codebase context.Understand, search, and change code at scale.
Highlights
What you can do with it
- Companies like Stripe feed internal AI agents code and docs context via MCP
- Engineering teams roll out cross-repository changes with monitoring follow-up
- Security engineers research migration and schema change patterns
How to use it
- 1 Explore the product and case studies on the Sourcegraph website
- 2 Schedule a demo for a deeper walkthrough
- 3 Register and integrate your codebases with the platform
- 4 Use deep search, code search, and batch changes in daily work
- 5 Track insights and monitoring alerts to manage risk over time
Who it is for
Pros
- Serves both human teams and AI agents from one index
- Batch Changes tackles repository-scale work reliably
- Free trial and demo lower the evaluation barrier
Limitations
- Enterprise-grade setup requires integration planning
- Indexing large codebases takes initial time and resources
- Trial terms and pricing details can change over time
What Sourcegraph is
Sourcegraph is a platform for understanding, supervising, and evolving code, built for the reality that codebases now grow faster than any team's ability to hold them in their heads. It indexes all of an organization's repositories and serves that context to both humans and AI agents. Deep Search answers complex natural language questions with reliable, cited answers; Code Search runs precise, exhaustive queries across the codebase; Batch Changes rolls out updates, vulnerability fixes, and refactors across many repositories at once; and code monitoring alerts teams through Slack, PagerDuty, and Email when relevant code changes. An MCP server gives agents SCIP-driven context that reduces retries and inference costs. A free trial and demos are available.
What you can do with it
- Ask questions like how database migrations are handled and get answers with references
- Execute coordinated changes across hundreds of repositories in one campaign
- Monitor for risky code patterns and notify the right people automatically
- Give coding agents real codebase context so their output matches your architecture
Who it is for
- Enterprise engineering teams managing large, fast-growing codebases
- Security engineers auditing code deployment and migration practices
- Product designers locating design tokens and variables in code
- Support and marketing teams who occasionally need codebase answers
What to watch out for
Sourcegraph is enterprise infrastructure, not a quick browser tool: integrating repositories, tuning search, and running Batch Changes responsibly require planning and ownership. Indexing very large codebases consumes initial time and compute, and change campaigns deserve staged rollouts and reviews since mistakes scale just as well as fixes. Pricing is not fully documented publicly, so confirm current plans and free trial terms directly, as these can change over time. The payoff depends on adoption: the platform delivers value only when both human teams and agents actually query it as part of daily work.
FAQ
What is the MCP server for?
The Sourcegraph MCP server provides complete SCIP-driven context to AI agents, helping them produce reliable results with fewer retries and lower inference costs.
Can it change code across many repositories?
Yes. Batch Changes makes large-scale cross-repository changes for updates, vulnerability fixes, and refactors.
