# Code Intelligence Tool Selection | Need | Tool | Example | |------|------|---------| | Package/module overview | `codebase_navigate` MCP (L0→L1→L2) | "What packages exist?" | | Symbol definition/signature | Serena `find_symbol` | "Where is Router defined?" | | Who calls/references X | Serena `find_referencing_symbols` | "Who calls _set_output?" | | File symbol overview | Serena `get_symbols_overview` | "What's in engine.py?" | | What breaks if I change X | GitNexus `impact` | "Blast radius of renaming Router" | | End-to-end execution flow | GitNexus `query` | "How does task submission work?" | | Architecture/clusters | GitNexus `context` or clusters resource | "What's in the memory package?" | | String pattern / non-Python | Grep | "Find all TODO comments" | | File by name | Glob | "Find all *_hook.py files" | ## Escalation Path Start cheap, escalate as needed: 1. `codebase_navigate` for orientation (always available, fast) 2. Serena for precise symbol work (LSP-powered, Python-only) 3. GitNexus for relationships and impact (knowledge graph, needs index) 4. Grep/Glob for everything else ## Availability - **Serena**: Always available. 1-2s init per session. - **GitNexus**: Requires index. Check freshness: `npx gitnexus status`. PostToolUse hook auto-detects staleness after commits. - **`codebase_navigate`**: Always available (Genesis health MCP).
