One Context Layer, Every AI Coding Tool: Serving a Verifiable IR Over MCP

Your team uses Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and Windsurf, and each one rebuilds an understanding of your codebase from scratch and shares nothing with the others. MCP is the standard that lets you stop doing that. Compile your repos once into a verifiable IR and serve it to every tool over one MCP endpoint. Here is why the context layer belongs outside the tool, and what changes when it does.

AST vs Vector vs Graph vs IR: Four Ways to Give an LLM Your Codebase

Every tool that feeds your codebase to an AI coding agent picks one of four representations. AST parsing, vector embeddings, code graphs, or a verifiable intermediate representation. Here is what each one keeps, what each one throws away, and why the first three are features of the fourth.

Why Vector Search, AST Parsers, and Raw LLMs All Fail at Code Intelligence — And What Actually Works

Vector embeddings treat code like english prose. AST parsers see structure but not meaning. Raw LLMs forget everything every session. Here is why the LLM compiler pattern with a persistent semantic graph is the only approach that actually works for cross-repository code intelligence, and why open source models at $7 per 1000 files make it practical today.
