sqry CLI - by Verivus

Semantic code search tool that understands code structure through AST analysis.

Overview

sqry is a command-line tool for searching code by what it means, not just what it says. It parses source code into an AST using tree-sitter, builds a graph of symbols and relationships, and lets you query that graph with structured predicates.

35 languages supported. See QUICKSTART.md for the full list.

Installation

# Clone and install
git clone https://github.com/verivus-oss/sqry.git
cd sqry
cargo install --path sqry-cli

# Verify
sqry --version

Requires Rust 1.90+ (Edition 2024). The full build (including 35 tree-sitter grammars) needs ~20 GB disk space.

Quick Start

# Build the index (one-time per project)
sqry index .

# Search for symbols
sqry main

# Structured query with predicates
sqry query "kind:function AND name~=/handle/"

# Natural language query
sqry ask "find all async functions in Rust"

# Find callers of a function
sqry graph direct-callers process_request

# Find circular dependencies
sqry cycles --type imports

Commands

Search & Query

Command	Description
`sqry <pattern>`	Pattern search (regex by default, `--exact` for literal, `--fuzzy` for fuzzy)
`sqry search <pattern>`	Explicit search command (same as above)
`sqry query <query>`	Structured AST-aware query with predicates
`sqry ask <question>`	Natural language query (translates to sqry query syntax)
`sqry hier <query>`	Hierarchical search with file/container grouping (RAG-optimized)

Index Management

Command	Description
`sqry index [path]`	Build symbol index and graph analyses (stored under `.sqry/`)
`sqry update [path]`	Incremental index update (changed files only)

`sqry lsp`	Start LSP server (`--stdio` for editors)
`sqry mcp setup`	Configure MCP server for AI assistants
`sqry completions <shell>`	Generate shell completions (bash, zsh, fish, powershell)

Query Syntax

Structured queries use predicates with boolean operators:

# By symbol kind
sqry query "kind:function"

# By name (regex)
sqry query "kind:function AND name~=/^handle/"

# By language
sqry query "kind:class AND lang:rust"

# By parent
sqry query "kind:method AND parent:MyClass"

# By visibility
sqry query "visibility:public AND kind:function"

# By async
sqry query "kind:function AND async:true"

# Combined
sqry query "(kind:function OR kind:method) AND lang:go AND name~=/error/"

# Explain without executing
sqry query "kind:function" --explain

Output Formats

sqry main                    # Colored text (default)
sqry main --json             # JSON
sqry main --csv              # CSV (RFC 4180)
sqry main --tsv              # TSV
sqry main --count            # Count only
sqry main --no-color         # Plain text

Filtering

sqry main --kind function    # By symbol type
sqry main --lang rust        # By language
sqry main --max-depth 3      # Directory depth
sqry main --exact            # Literal match
sqry main --fuzzy            # Fuzzy match
sqry main --ignore-case      # Case-insensitive

Exit Codes

0 - Success (matches found)
1 - Error or no matches found
