# KotaDB
**Ask Claude about your code. Get instant answers.**
KotaDB gives Claude Code superpowers for understanding your codebase. Index your repository once, then ask questions like *"What breaks if I change this file?"* and get accurate, dependency-aware answers.
## For Users
### What KotaDB Does
KotaDB is a local code intelligence tool that helps Claude Code understand your codebase structure:
- **Impact Analysis**: Know exactly what files depend on what you're changing
- **Code Search**: Find code by meaning, not just text matching
- **Dependency Graphs**: See how your files connect to each other
- **Zero Cloud**: Everything runs locally - your code never leaves your machine
### 5-Minute Setup
**Prerequisites:** [Bun](https://bun.sh) v1.1+ (required)
**Step 1: Add to Claude Code**
Add this to your Claude Code MCP config (`~/.claude/mcp.json`):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"kotadb": {
"command": "bunx",
"args": ["kotadb@next", "--stdio"]
}
}
}
```
