You'll need a SCIP indexer for your language. For TypeScript/JavaScript:
For other languages, see SCIP Indexers.
→ See AGENTS.md for complete integration guides for:
Quick start for any agent:
dora integrates with Claude Code via settings and optional skill configuration. Just add these files to your project:
Add to .claude/settings.json (enables auto-indexing and permissions):
(Optional) Add the dora skill at .claude/skills/dora/SKILL.md:
After running dora init, create a symlink:
This enables the /dora command in Claude Code. View the skill file.
This gives Claude quick access to dora commands and guidance on when to use dora for code exploration. The snippet includes command reference and best practices.
What this gives you:
Troubleshooting:
This creates a .dora/ directory with a default config.
Edit .dora/config.json to configure your SCIP indexer:
For TypeScript/JavaScript:
For Rust:
New to dora? The cookbook has recipes with real examples:
All recipes include tested SQL patterns from real codebases.
Quick reference for all commands with common flags:
All commands output valid JSON to stdout. Errors go to stderr with exit code 1.
For debug logging, testing, building, and development instructions, see CONTRIBUTING.md.
Claude Code index not updating:
Stop hook not firing:
Want to see indexing progress:
Index takes too long:
Queries are slow:
Contributions are welcome! For development setup, testing, building binaries, and code style guidelines, see CONTRIBUTING.md.
