# Code-Index-MCP Documentation Table of Contents
Generated: 2025-01-30
## Executive Summary
### Project Overview
- **Project**: Code-Index-MCP - Local-first code indexer with MCP (Model Context Protocol) support
- **Complexity**: 5/5 (High - 136k lines, 48 language plugins, semantic search)
- **Implementation Status**: 95% complete (100% features, 83% MCP sub-agent failure)
- **Architecture Alignment**: 85% (Strong alignment between design and implementation)
- **Documentation Files**: 141+ markdown files across multiple categories
### Critical Issues
1. **MCP Sub-Agent Tool Inheritance**: 83% failure rate - Task agents cannot access MCP tools
2. **Index Path Discovery**: Limited to single path, missing test repository indexes
3. **Documentation Migration**: Multiple CLAUDE.md files need migration to AGENTS.md pattern
4. **Architecture Updates**: Some PlantUML diagrams need updates to reflect latest implementations

#### Critical Blockers (from ROADMAP.md)
1. **MCP Sub-Agent Tool Inheritance** [Complexity: 5/5] 🔴 BLOCKING
- 83% failure rate in production environments
- Task agents don't inherit parent MCP configuration
- Prevents production deployment with MCP
2. **Multi-Path Index Discovery** [Complexity: 4/5] 🔴 BLOCKING
- Only checks `.indexes/` path
- Misses test repository indexes
- Causes 0% success for some languages

## Navigation Guide
### For AI Agents
1. Start with `/AGENTS.md` for current state and capabilities
2. Check `/ROADMAP.md` for implementation priorities
3. Use MCP tools when available (17% success rate)
4. Fall back to native tools (90% success rate)
5. Review architecture files for system design
### For Humans
1. Begin with `/docs/PROJECT_STRUCTURE.md` for overview
2. Check `/docs/DEPLOYMENT-GUIDE.md` for setup
3. Review `/docs/status/` for current state
4. Use `/docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md` for issues
5. See `/architecture/` for system design
