What is the difference between semantic and keyword search?

Keyword search finds exact text matches, while semantic search understands the intent behind your query to find relevant logic even if the specific words do not match.

Does this require a paid GitLab account?

Basic keyword search works with any GitLab instance, but semantic search requires a GitLab.com account with GitLab Duo enabled.

Is my source code shared with third parties?

Search queries are processed through your configured GitLab MCP server. Semantic search uses GitLab Duo's infrastructure, while keyword search stays within your GitLab instance.

Can I search across multiple projects at once?

Yes, the skill is designed to search across your entire accessible GitLab instance, making it ideal for organizations with microservice architectures.

Locates relevant code and implementations across your entire GitLab instance using semantic and keyword search.

소개

GitLab Code Search empowers developers to navigate complex codebases by searching for specific logic, implementations, or architectural patterns across all accessible GitLab projects. By leveraging both advanced semantic search for GitLab.com users and traditional keyword matching for self-hosted instances, it allows Claude to find contextually relevant snippets, line numbers, and project links. Whether you are investigating how a specific API is authenticated or tracking down legacy configurations across microservices, this skill streamlines the discovery phase of development, enabling faster debugging and more consistent code reviews.
