Bifrost

About

Bifrost is a VS Code extension that acts as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, bridging the gap between VS Code's robust development tools and AI coding assistants. By exposing language features like find usages, go to definition, and rename refactoring via an HTTP/SSE server, Bifrost enables AI tools to understand and interact with code more effectively, leading to more intelligent and context-aware code generation, analysis, and manipulation.
