What it does
Sync Codebase is an agent skill from hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins. Build or update the reviewer base index (vector store + code graph) from a local repo clone. Use when the user asks to "index the codebase", "build the index", "sync the code", "rebuild the graph", "просиндексируй код", "построй индекс".
Its SKILL.md is about 870 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Databases, covering Vector databases. It works with Git and Neo4j. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of awesome OpenAI Codex / ChatGPT plugins, skills, and resources. The 1 Codex Marketplace. See live plugins at: https://hol.org/plugins/best-codex-plugins. The licence is Apache-2.0.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 78497e5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
git
uvx
npm
docker
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, uvx, npm and docker, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
VOYAGE_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Sync Codebase loads about 867 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 398 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Always· name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~63
When it runs· the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~867
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Build or update the reviewer base index (vector store + code graph) from a local repo clone. Use when the user asks to "index the codebase", "build the index", "sync the code", "rebuild the graph", "просиндексируй код", "построй индекс".
Sync Codebase
Builds or updates the reviewer base index — vector embeddings (Postgres/pgvector) and code graph
(Neo4j) — from a local repo clone using reviewer index. This is a one-time setup operation;
subsequent runs are incremental (only changed files are re-embedded).
Inputs
Parse from $ARGUMENTS (all optional):
--path <path>: path to the local repo clone. Default: current working directory.
--ref <branch>: git ref to index. Default: main.
--repo <owner/name>: repo identifier for multi-repo setups. If omitted, derived automatically
from git remote get-url origin.
--backend <auto|scip|treesitter>: graph backend override. Default: auto (SCIP if in PATH,
else tree-sitter).
Pipeline
Resolve inputs. If --path not given, use the current working directory. If --ref not
given, use main. If --repo not given, run:
bash
git -C <path> remote get-url origin
Strip .git suffix, extract the last two path segments (owner/name).
Check prerequisites. Verify:
uvx is available: uvx --version succeeds.
The path is a git repo: git -C <path> rev-parse --git-dir succeeds.
The reviewer MCP server is reachable (run reviewer check or confirm the user has .env
configured with PG_DSN, NEO4J_URI, VOYAGE_API_KEY).
Docker services are up if using the default stack: docker compose ps shows paradedb and
neo4j running.
Stop and tell the user what is missing if any check fails.
Run indexing.
bash
uvx --from rag-reviewer reviewer index <path> --ref <ref>
Add --repo <owner/name> if resolved or provided. Stream the output to the user.
Expected duration: seconds for small repos, minutes for large ones — Voyage free tier
(3 RPM / 10K TPM) causes throttling with automatic retry/backoff. That is normal, not an error.
Use --limit N (if supported) for a quick smoke run.
Verify. After indexing completes, optionally run a diagnostic search to confirm the corpus:
Or call search_code via the reviewer MCP tools directly.
Report. Summarise the output: chunks indexed/updated, graph nodes/edges upserted, warnings
(e.g. "SCIP unavailable, fell back to tree-sitter"). If the SCIP backend was used, note that
IMPLEMENTS edges and full call-graph accuracy are available; if tree-sitter, only CALLS by
name are available.
Show full SKILL.md (85 more words)Show less
Notes
This indexes the local clone on disk — not via GitHub API. The repo must be cloned locally
before running.
For accurate graph with IMPLEMENTS edges: install scip-python first:bash
npm install -g @sourcegraph/scip-python
Then re-run — GRAPH_BACKEND=auto picks it up automatically.
After reviewer index, individual PR reviews (rag-reviewer:review-pr) trigger incremental
re-sync of changed files automatically via prepare_review. Full re-index is only needed when
the base branch diverges significantly or after a fresh deploy.
To sync tasks from the configured registered task board, use rag-reviewer:sync-tasks instead.
