About

Indexed C/C++ code navigation for AI agents — GNU Global (gtags) lookups over MCP, not grep scans.

Use this server

Add it to your MCP client. The catalogue lists this config verbatim from its source — it does not run, download, or vouch for the server. Review the command before you run it.
