With CocoIndex, users declare the transformation, CocoIndex creates & maintains an index, and keeps the derived index up to date based on source update, with minimal computation and changes.

Project description

Enterprise corpus — codebase, Slack, meeting notes, and documentation — flowing continuously through the CocoIndex incremental sync engine into a production AI agent with always-fresh context. Only the Δ (delta) is reprocessed on every change. Keywords: RAG pipeline, agent memory, enterprise retrieval, AI agent context, live indexing, retrieval-augmented generation, production LLM apps, streaming ETL, incremental ingestion.

Your agents deserve fresh context.

Built with CocoIndex ❤️

CocoIndex-code — flagship MCP server for AI coding agents. AST-aware incremental semantic code index that keeps live call graphs, symbols, vectors, and chunks fresh on every commit. 70% fewer tokens per turn, 80-90% cache hits on re-index, sub-second freshness. Supports Python, TypeScript, Rust, and Go. Features: Δ-only incremental processing, semantic search by meaning (not grep), call graphs and blast-radius analysis, global repo view for duplicates and architecture. Build coding agents (generate, refactor) and code-review agents (catch, approve). One install — Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-aware agents see your whole repository instantly. Keywords: MCP server, coding agent, code intelligence, AST chunking, semantic code search, call graph, vector embedding, repository context, Claude Code, Cursor, incremental indexing, blast radius.

Get started

pip install -U cocoindex

Declare what should be in your target — CocoIndex keeps it in sync forever, recomputing only the Δ.

import cocoindex as coco
from cocoindex.connectors import localfs, postgres
from cocoindex.ops.text import RecursiveSplitter

@coco.fn(memo=True)                          # ← cached by hash(input) + hash(code)
async def index_file(file, table):
    for chunk in RecursiveSplitter().split(await file.read_text()):
        table.declare_row(text=chunk.text, embedding=embed(chunk.text))

@coco.fn
async def main(src):
    table = await postgres.mount_table_target(PG, table_name="docs")
    table.declare_vector_index(column="embedding")
    await coco.mount_each(index_file, localfs.walk_dir(src).items(), table)

coco.App(coco.AppConfig(name="docs"), main, src="./docs").update_blocking()

Run once to backfill. Re-run anytime — only the changed files re-embed.

React — for data engineering

React — for data engineering. The CocoIndex mental model: Target = F(Source). A persistent-state-driven dataflow where you declare the desired target state and the engine keeps it in sync with the latest source data and code, forever, at low latency and low cost. Source files (.py, .md, .pdf, .ts) flow through your Python transformation F into a live target dots-matrix index; only the Δ is reprocessed on every change, and every target dot traces back to its exact source byte. Four core properties: Python not a DAG (sky), declare target state (yellow bullseye), lineage end-to-end (coral connected dots), and incremental at any scale (mint Δ+1). Your code is as simple as the one-off version — the engine does the rest. Keywords: React for data engineering, declarative ETL, persistent state, data lineage, dataflow, Δ only, incremental indexing, CocoIndex.

What happens when either side changes — CocoIndex tracks per-row provenance so the Δ propagates at minimum cost. Two scenarios shown in one illustration: (top) Source change — one file (b.md) is edited and only one target dot re-syncs (coral pulse). (bottom) Code change — the transformation function F is rewritten from v1 to v2 and only the dots whose outputs depend on the changed code re-run (amber/yellow pulses). Source on the left, F in the center (Python code block), target dots-matrix on the right. Keywords: incremental indexing, change data capture, delta processing, fine-grained invalidation, code-aware caching, hash-of-code invalidation, memoization, reproducible pipelines, incremental recomputation.

Incremental engine for long-horizon agents

Data transformation for any engineer, designed for AI workloads —
with a smart incremental engine for always-fresh, explainable data.

Learn the concept — purple button with a lightbulb icon linking to the CocoIndex core-concepts guide: sources, targets, flows, incremental engine, and data lineage

CocoIndex's Python-native transformation flows connect 8 source categories (Codebases, Meeting Notes, Web · APIs, File System · Blob Stores, Databases, Message Queues, Images · Video, Voice · Transcripts) through the incremental engine out to 6 target stores (Relational DB, Data Warehouse, Vector DB, Graph DB, Message Queue, Feature Store). A flow.py code block (@coco.fn · def f(src): · chunks = split(src) · target.row(embed(chunks))) shows the shared pipeline; only the Δ is reprocessed — unchanged src hits the cache, changed src re-runs split() and Δ → re-embed. The persistent data-pipeline control plane runs eight always-on subsystems: live caching, pipeline catalog, version tracking, continuously learning, lineage, task scheduling, metrics collection, and failure management. Keywords: data pipeline, ETL, source connectors, vector database, graph database, incremental engine, streaming ingestion, caching, lineage, versioning, scheduling, metrics, retries.



Why incremental?

Your agents are only as good as the data they see.
Batch pipelines drift stale. CocoIndex stays live — and only runs the Δ.

Why incremental? — one illustration combining the four core benefits of CocoIndex's incremental engine. Sub-second fresh (mint): a stopwatch ticking under a second, source changes propagate to the target in under a second so agents see the world as it is, not as it was yesterday. 10× cheaper at scale (yellow): a 10,000-row corpus block where only a thin Δ 0.1% column re-runs and 99.9% stays cached — you skip the other 99.9% of your corpus and pay a fraction of the compute, embedding, and LLM bill. Explainable by default (coral): a lineage thread links a source byte (handbook.md L42) to a target vector — every vector, row, or graph node in the target traces back to its exact source byte for debuggable, auditable, regulator-friendly AI pipelines. Production-grade (purple): a shield stamped with the Rust crab surrounded by retry loops, back-off dots, a DLQ tray, and a no-data-loss check — Rust core with retries, exponential back-off, dead-letter queues, and no-data-loss guarantees, production-ready for long-horizon AI agents. Keywords: incremental indexing, Δ-only reprocessing, sub-second freshness, low-latency RAG, cost-efficient embeddings, data lineage, retrieval-augmented generation, Rust core, retries, back-off, dead letters, no data loss, long-horizon agents.

CocoIndex Enterprise

CocoIndex Enterprise — built for enterprise scale. Four headline stats for PB-scale incremental indexing: PB corpus scale incrementally indexed (coral), 10× fewer LLM embedding calls vs. full recompute (yellow), 100% lineage coverage with every byte traceable (mint), Δ only the delta always (sky). Below, a wide 50×8 corpus matrix of 400 dim tiles represents a petabyte-scale store where a single coral Δ slice of 8 tiles re-runs while the other 99.9% stays cached. Keywords: enterprise RAG, petabyte-scale indexing, incremental compute, delta-only, lineage, parallel chunking, zero-copy, failure isolation.

Large corpus — built for enterprise scale.

Incremental compute is the only way to keep large corpora fresh without re-embedding them every cycle.
CocoIndex scales from a single repo to petabyte-scale stores — parallel by default, delta-only by design.


Process once. Reconcile forever.

When a source changes, CocoIndex identifies the affected records, propagates the change
across joins and lookups, updates the target, and retires stale rows —
without touching anything that didn't change.


Built on a Rust engine.

The core is Rust — production-grade from day zero.
Parallel chunking, zero-copy transforms where possible, and failure isolation
so one bad record doesn't stall the flow.
