I went in skeptical, because every tool here promises millisecond queries and fewer tokens, and most of them assume a small repo. I threw a large internal project at it, north of two million lines, and the index held together. Queries stayed fast, and the type resolution was accurate enough that I trusted the call chains it returned.

It is not magic. The semantic layer covers nine languages well and the rest fall back to structural parsing, so mixed-language repos get uneven depth. Worth knowing before you lean on it. Even so, this is the first code-intelligence server I have left running instead of uninstalling after a day. For large codebases it earns its place.
