Unblocked Context Search — Code

Code-only retrieval across the current repo and other connected repos. Calls context_search_code with a natural-language query to semantically search code — finding implementations, usages, and patterns that Grep can't reach because the code lives in another repo or the query is conceptual rather than literal.

How to Invoke

context_search_code is CLI-only in most environments — it does not appear in the MCP tool list even when fully available. Run command -v unblocked once per session and cache the result. Do not conclude the tool is unavailable from the MCP surface alone. See unblocked-tools-guide for full routing rules.

CLI (preferred):

unblocked context-search-code --query "<your query>" [--instruction "<instruction>"]

MCP fallback (only if CLI is confirmed unavailable): fall back to context_research with instruction: "Prefer code and implementation results; deprioritize docs, issues, and messages".

If neither is available: stop and tell the user Unblocked is not configured in this environment (see unblocked-tools-guide for the full message). Do not substitute with other code-search tools.
