"Archivist is an innovative AI-driven extension designed for Visual Studio Code, offering powerful semantic search capabilities across any codebase. With its advanced search feature, Archivist quickly navigates through your code, delivering clear and concise summaries of matching code snippets, making it easier to understand their functionality. This tool dynamically updates its index as the code is modified, ensuring that search results remain accurate and reflect the latest changes. Upon initial setup, Archivist automatically indexes the entire codebase, creating a .archivist folder with a customizable config.json file. This file supports exclusions using gitignore syntax, allowing users to refine which files are indexed. Archivist delivers fast, efficient search results, with changes to your codebase becoming instantly searchable. It supports popular programming languages such as Python, Java, TypeScript, JavaScript, TSX, JSX, and C++, with future updates planned to expand language compatibility. Files written in unsupported languages are automatically excluded from indexing. Prioritizing user privacy, Archivist ensures your code and personal data remain secure and are never stored externally. Its seamless integration and continuous indexing make it a must-have tool for developers looking to streamline code search and review processes."
