Code intelligence and reuse discovery for research repositories

codio

Code intelligence and reuse discovery for research repositories.

Codio answers a practical question before implementation begins: What code already exists that solves this problem?

It maintains a two-layer registry — a catalog of library identity (name, language, repo, license) and a project profile of local policy (priority, runtime import rules, capability tags) — so agents and humans can search before they build.

Install

pip install codio

Quick start

codio init                          # scaffold .codio/ in your project
codio list                          # list registered libraries
codio discover "signal-processing"  # search by capability
codio get mylib                     # full library record
codio validate                      # check registry consistency
codio vocab                         # show controlled vocabulary
codio study mylib                   # structured library analysis
codio compare lib1 lib2             # compare libraries side-by-side

Registry model

Codio separates what a library is from how your project uses it:

• Catalog (.codio/catalog.yml) — shared, project-agnostic metadata: name, kind, language, repo URL, package name, license, local source paths.
• Profile (.codio/profiles.yml) — project-local interpretation: priority tier, runtime import policy, decision default, capability tags, curated note path.

Fields use a controlled vocabulary (codio vocab): kind (internal, external_mirror, utility), runtime_import (internal, pip_only, reference_only), decision_default (existing, wrap, direct, new), priority (tier1, tier2, ...).

MCP integration

Codio exposes tools through the projio MCP server:

Tool	Description
codio_list	Filtered library listing
codio_get	Full library record
codio_registry	Full registry snapshot
codio_vocab	Controlled vocabulary
codio_validate	Registry consistency check
codio_discover	Capability search across libraries
codio_add_urls	Add libraries from GitHub/GitLab URLs

Agent skills

• codelib-discovery — search before implement: returns candidates with evidence and recommends a decision (reuse, wrap, depend, or implement new).
• codelib-update — maintain registry and curated notes.
• library-study — deep parallel analysis of external libraries.

Ecosystem

Codio is part of the projio ecosystem alongside indexio (semantic search), biblio (bibliography), and notio (structured notes).
