AI product Open source
mintocode is an AI coding-agent context tool that compiles a repository into plain-text cards describing files, functions, modules, dependencies, flows, aliases, and likely questions. For each question, it selects relevant paragraphs from those notes, follows a symbol-level link graph to referenced definitions, callers, and tests, and combines the selected notes with current source spans into a compact context pack rather than repeatedly sending whole files. The compiled data is stored in .micode/ and can be updated incrementally; citations are checked against a parsed symbol table and unresolved citations are flagged. The mic command supports one-call questions and pack generation, while integrations provide hooks, MCP tools, commands, and read guards for Claude Code, Codex, ZCode, and OpenCode. It is distributed as a Python package requiring Python 3.10 or later with no dependencies, uses existing Claude, Anthropic, OpenAI-compatible, or Codex model access, and is licensed under MIT.

Helps coding agents answer questions about a repo without repeatedly reading whole files: it builds plain text notes about the code, functions, and connections, then pulls in relevant notes and current source lines per question. Works with Claude Code, Codex, or other agents, lowering token use.
