Sourcebot is a self-hosted tool that helps you understand your codebase.

• Ask Sourcebot: Ask questions about your codebase and have Sourcebot provide detailed answers grounded with inline citations.
• Code search: Search and navigate across all your repos and branches, no matter where they’re hosted.

Try it out in our public demo!

Features

Ask Sourcebot

Ask Sourcebot gives you the ability to ask complex questions about your codebase in natural language.

It uses Sourcebot's existing code search and navigation tools to allow reasoning models to search your code, follow code nav references, and provide an answer that's rich with inline citations and navigable code snippets.

Code Search

Search across all your repos/branches across any code host platform. Blazingly fast, and supports regular expressions, repo/language search filters, boolean logic, and more.

Deploy Sourcebot

Sourcebot can be deployed in seconds using Docker Compose. Visit our docs for more information.

1. Download the docker-compose.yml file

curl -o docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot/main/docker-compose.yml

1. In the same directory as the docker-compose.yml file, create a configuration file. The configuration file is a JSON file that configures Sourcebot's behaviour, including what repositories to index, language model providers, auth providers, and more.

echo '{
    "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot/main/schemas/v3/index.json",
    // Comments are supported.
    // This config creates a single connection to GitHub.com that
    // indexes the Sourcebot repository
    "connections": {
        "starter-connection": {
            "type": "github",
            "repos": [
                "sourcebot-dev/sourcebot"
            ]
        }
    }
}' > config.json

1. Update the secrets in the docker-compose.yml and then run Sourcebot using:

docker compose up

1. Visit http://localhost:3000 to start using Sourcebot

To configure Sourcebot (index your own repos, connect your LLMs, etc), check out our docs.
