# GrepAI Optimization Guide - Bite-Sized Chunks & Enhanced Context
**Created:** 2026-01-22
**Purpose:** Configure GrepAI for optimal context search with smaller, more precise chunks
**Status:** Ready to Apply
---
## What Changed
### 1. Bite-Sized Chunks (512 → 256 tokens)
**Before:**
- Chunk size: 512 tokens (~2,048 characters, ~40-50 lines)
- Total chunks: 6,458
**After:**
- Chunk size: 256 tokens (~1,024 characters, ~20-25 lines)
- Expected chunks: ~13,000
- Index size: ~80 MB (from 41 MB)
**Benefits:**
- ✅ More precise search results
- ✅ Better semantic matching on specific concepts
- ✅ Easier to locate exact code snippets
- ✅ Improved context for AI analysis
- ✅ Can find smaller functions/methods independently
**Trade-offs:**
- ⚠️ Doubles chunk count (more storage)
- ⚠️ Initial re-indexing: 10-15 minutes
- ⚠️ Slightly higher memory usage
---
### 2. Enhanced Context File Search
**Problem:** Important context files (credentials.md, directives.md, session logs) were penalized at 0.6x relevance, making them harder to find.
**Solution:** Strategic boost system for critical files
#### Critical Context Files (1.5x boost)
- `credentials.md` - Infrastructure credentials for context recovery
- `directives.md` - Operational guidelines and agent coordination rules
#### Session Logs (1.4x boost)
- `session-logs/*.md` - Complete work history with credentials and decisions
#### Claude Configuration (1.3-1.4x boost)
- `.claude/CLAUDE.md` - Project instructions
- `.claude/FILE_PLACEMENT_GUIDE.md` - File organization
- `.claude/AGENT_COORDINATION_RULES.md` - Agent delegation rules
- `MCP_SERVERS.md` - MCP server configuration
#### Documentation (Neutral 1.0x)
- Changed from 0.6x penalty to 1.0x neutral
- All `.md` files now searchable without penalty
- README files and `/docs/` no longer penalized
---
## What Gets Indexed
### ✅ Currently Indexed (955 files)
- All source code (`.py`, `.rs`, `.ts`, `.js`, etc.)
- All markdown files (`.md`)
- Session logs (`session-logs/*.md`)
- Configuration files (`.yaml`, `.json`, `.toml`)
- Shell scripts (`.sh`, `.ps1`, `.bat`)
- SQL files (`.sql`)
### ❌ Excluded (Ignored Patterns)
- `.git/` - Git repository internals
- `.grepai/` - GrepAI index itself
- `node_modules/` - npm dependencies
- `venv/`, `.venv/` - Python virtual environments
- `__pycache__/` - Python bytecode
- `dist/`, `build/` - Build artifacts
- `.idea/`, `.vscode/` - IDE settings
### ⚠️ Penalized (Lower Relevance)
- Test files: `*_test.*`, `*.spec.*`, `*.test.*` (0.5x)
- Mock files: `/mocks/`, `.mock.*` (0.4x)
- Generated code: `/generated/`, `.gen.*` (0.4x)
---
## Implementation Steps
### Step 1: Stop the Watcher
```bash
cd D:\ClaudeTools
./grepai.exe watch --stop
```
Expected output: "Watcher stopped"
### Step 2: Backup Current Config
```bash
copy .grepai\config.yaml .grepai\config.yaml.backup
```
### Step 3: Apply New Configuration
```bash
copy .grepai\config.yaml.new .grepai\config.yaml
```
Or manually edit `.grepai\config.yaml` and change:
- Line 10: `size: 512``size: 256`
- Add bonus patterns (lines 22-41 in new config)
- Remove `.md` penalty (delete line 49-50)
### Step 4: Delete Old Index (Forces Re-indexing)
```bash
# Delete index files but keep config
Remove-Item .grepai\*.gob -Force
Remove-Item .grepai\embeddings -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
```
### Step 5: Re-Index with New Settings
```bash
./grepai.exe index --force
```
**Expected time:** 10-15 minutes for ~955 files
**Progress indicators:**
- Shows "Indexing files..." with progress bar
- Displays file count and ETA
- Updates every few seconds
### Step 6: Restart Watcher
```bash
./grepai.exe watch --background
```
**Verify it's running:**
```bash
./grepai.exe watch --status
```
Expected output:
```
Watcher status: running
PID: <process_id>
Indexed files: 955
Last update: <timestamp>
```
### Step 7: Verify New Index
```bash
./grepai.exe status
```
Expected output:
```
Files indexed: 955
Total chunks: ~13,000 (doubled from 6,458)
Index size: ~80 MB (increased from 41 MB)
Provider: ollama (nomic-embed-text)
```
### Step 8: Restart Claude Code
Claude Code needs to restart to use the updated MCP server configuration.
1. Quit Claude Code completely
2. Relaunch Claude Code
3. Test: "Use grepai to search for database credentials"
---
## Testing the Optimizations
### Test 1: Bite-Sized Chunks
**Query:** "database connection pool setup"
**Expected:**
- More granular results (specific to pool config)
- Find `create_engine()` call independently
- Find `SessionLocal` configuration separately
- Better line-level precision
**Before (512 tokens):** Returns entire `api\database.py` module (68 lines)
**After (256 tokens):** Returns specific sections:
- Engine creation (lines 20-30)
- Session factory (lines 50-60)
- get_db dependency (lines 61-80)
---
### Test 2: Context File Search
**Query:** "SSH credentials for GuruRMM server"
**Expected:**
- `credentials.md` should rank FIRST (1.5x boost)
- Should find SSH access section directly
- Higher relevance score than code files
**Verify:**
```bash
./grepai.exe search "SSH credentials GuruRMM" -n 5
```
---
### Test 3: Session Log Context Recovery
**Query:** "previous work on session logs or context recovery"
**Expected:**
- `session-logs/*.md` files should rank highly (1.4x boost)
- Find relevant past work sessions
- Better than generic documentation
---
### Test 4: Operational Guidelines
**Query:** "agent coordination rules or delegation"
**Expected:**
- `directives.md` should rank first (1.5x boost)
- `.claude/AGENT_COORDINATION_RULES.md` should rank second (1.3x boost)
- Find operational guidelines before generic docs
---
## Performance Expectations
### Indexing Performance
- **Initial indexing:** 10-15 minutes (one-time)
- **Incremental updates:** <5 seconds per file
- **Full re-index:** 10-15 minutes (rarely needed)
### Search Performance
- **Query latency:** 50-150ms (may increase slightly due to more chunks)
- **Relevance:** Improved for specific concepts
- **Memory usage:** 150-250 MB (increased from 100-200 MB)
### Storage Requirements
- **Index size:** ~80 MB (increased from 41 MB)
- **Disk I/O:** Minimal after initial indexing
- **Ollama embeddings:** 768-dimensional vectors (unchanged)
---
## Troubleshooting
### Issue: Re-indexing Stuck or Slow
**Solution:**
1. Check Ollama is running: `curl http://localhost:11434/api/tags`
2. Check CPU usage (embedding generation is CPU-intensive)
3. Monitor logs: `C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\grepai\logs\grepai-watch.log`
### Issue: Search Results Less Relevant
**Solution:**
1. Verify config applied: `type .grepai\config.yaml | findstr "size:"`
- Should show: `size: 256`
2. Verify bonuses applied: `type .grepai\config.yaml | findstr "credentials.md"`
- Should show: `factor: 1.5`
3. Re-index if needed: `./grepai.exe index --force`
### Issue: Watcher Won't Start
**Solution:**
1. Kill existing process: `taskkill /F /IM grepai.exe`
2. Delete stale PID: `Remove-Item .grepai\watch.pid -Force`
3. Restart watcher: `./grepai.exe watch --background`
### Issue: MCP Server Not Responding
**Solution:**
1. Verify grepai running: `./grepai.exe watch --status`
2. Restart Claude Code completely
3. Test MCP manually: `./grepai.exe mcp-serve`
---
## Rollback Plan
If issues occur, rollback to original configuration:
```bash
# Stop watcher
./grepai.exe watch --stop
# Restore backup config
copy .grepai\config.yaml.backup .grepai\config.yaml
# Re-index with old settings
./grepai.exe index --force
# Restart watcher
./grepai.exe watch --background
# Restart Claude Code
```
---

# GrepAI Optimization Summary
**Date:** 2026-01-22
**Status:** Ready to Apply
---
## Quick Answer to Your Questions
### 1. Can we make grepai store things in bite-sized pieces?
**YES!**
**Current:** 512 tokens per chunk (~40-50 lines of code)
**Optimized:** 256 tokens per chunk (~20-25 lines of code)
**Change:** Line 10 in `.grepai/config.yaml`: `size: 512``size: 256`
**Result:**
- More precise search results
- Find specific functions independently
- Better granularity for AI analysis
- Doubles chunk count (6,458 → ~13,000)
---
### 2. Can all context be added to grepai?
**YES!** ✅ It already is, but we can boost it!
**Currently Indexed:**
-`credentials.md` - Infrastructure credentials
-`directives.md` - Operational guidelines
-`session-logs/*.md` - Work history
-`.claude/*.md` - All Claude configuration
- ✅ All project documentation
- ✅ All code files
**Problem:** Markdown files were PENALIZED (0.6x relevance), making context harder to find
**Solution:** Strategic boost system
```yaml
# BOOST critical context files
credentials.md: 1.5x # Highest priority
directives.md: 1.5x # Highest priority
session-logs/: 1.4x # High priority
.claude/: 1.3x # High priority
MCP_SERVERS.md: 1.2x # Medium priority
# REMOVE markdown penalty
.md files: 1.0x # Changed from 0.6x to neutral
```
---
## Implementation (5 Minutes)
```bash
# 1. Stop watcher
./grepai.exe watch --stop
# 2. Backup config
copy .grepai\config.yaml .grepai\config.yaml.backup
# 3. Apply new config
copy .grepai\config.yaml.new .grepai\config.yaml
# 4. Delete old index (force re-index with new settings)
Remove-Item .grepai\*.gob -Force
# 5. Re-index (takes 10-15 minutes)
./grepai.exe index --force
# 6. Restart watcher

```
**Option B: Manual Download**
1. Go to https://ollama.ai/download
2. Download the Windows installer
3. Run the installer
**Verify Installation:**
```powershell
ollama --version
```
Expected output: `ollama version is X.Y.Z`
---
## Step 2: Start Ollama Server
**Start the server:**
```powershell
ollama serve
```
Leave this terminal open - Ollama needs to run in the background.
**Tip:** Ollama usually starts automatically after installation. Check system tray for Ollama icon.
---
## Step 3: Pull a Model
**Open a NEW terminal** and pull a model:
**Recommended for most users:**
```powershell
ollama pull llama3.1:8b
```
Size: 4.7GB | Speed: Fast | Quality: Good
**Best for code:**
```powershell
ollama pull qwen2.5-coder:7b
```
Size: 4.7GB | Speed: Fast | Quality: Excellent for code
**Alternative options:**
```powershell
# Faster, smaller
ollama pull mistral:7b # 4.1GB
# Better quality, larger
ollama pull llama3.1:70b # 40GB (requires good GPU)
# Code-focused
ollama pull codellama:13b # 7.4GB
```
**Verify model is available:**
```powershell
ollama list
```
---
## Step 4: Test Ollama
```powershell
ollama run llama3.1:8b "Explain what MCP is in one sentence"
```
Expected: You should get a response from the model.
Press `Ctrl+D` or type `/bye` to exit the chat.
---
## Step 5: Setup MCP Server
**Run the setup script:**
```powershell
cd D:\ClaudeTools\mcp-servers\ollama-assistant
.\setup.ps1
```
This will:
- Create Python virtual environment
- Install MCP dependencies (mcp, httpx)
- Check Ollama installation
- Verify everything is configured
**Expected output:**
```
[OK] Python installed
[OK] Virtual environment created
[OK] Dependencies installed
[OK] Ollama installed
[OK] Ollama server is running
[OK] Found compatible models
Setup Complete!
```
---
## Step 6: Configure Claude Code
The `.mcp.json` file has already been updated with the Ollama configuration.
**Verify configuration:**
```powershell
cat D:\ClaudeTools\.mcp.json
```
You should see an `ollama-assistant` entry.
---
## Step 7: Restart Claude Code
**IMPORTANT:** You must completely restart Claude Code for MCP changes to take effect.
1. Close Claude Code completely
2. Reopen Claude Code
3. Navigate to D:\ClaudeTools directory
---
## Step 8: Test Integration
Try these commands in Claude Code:
**Test 1: Check status**
```
Use the ollama_status tool to check if Ollama is running
```
**Test 2: Ask a question**
```
Use ask_ollama to ask: "What is the fastest sorting algorithm?"
```
**Test 3: Analyze code**
```
Use analyze_code_local to review this Python function for bugs:
def divide(a, b):
return a / b
```
---
## Troubleshooting
### Ollama Not Running
**Error:** `Cannot connect to Ollama at http://localhost:11434`
**Fix:**
```powershell
# Start Ollama
ollama serve
# Or check if it's already running
netstat -ano | findstr :11434
```
### Model Not Found
**Error:** `Model 'llama3.1:8b' not found`
**Fix:**
```powershell
# Pull the model
ollama pull llama3.1:8b
# Verify it's installed
ollama list
```
### Python Virtual Environment Issues
**Error:** `python: command not found`
**Fix:**
1. Install Python 3.8+ from python.org
2. Add Python to PATH
3. Rerun setup.ps1
### MCP Server Not Loading
**Check Claude Code logs:**
```powershell
# Look for MCP-related errors
# Logs are typically in: %APPDATA%\Claude\logs\
```
**Verify Python path:**
```powershell
D:\ClaudeTools\mcp-servers\ollama-assistant\venv\Scripts\python.exe --version
```
### Port 11434 Already in Use
**Error:** `Port 11434 is already in use`
**Fix:**
```powershell
# Find what's using the port
netstat -ano | findstr :11434
# Kill the process (replace PID)
taskkill /F /PID <PID>
# Restart Ollama
ollama serve
```
---
## Performance Tips
### GPU Acceleration
**Ollama automatically uses your GPU if available (NVIDIA/AMD).**
**Check GPU usage:**
```powershell
# NVIDIA
nvidia-smi
# AMD
# Check Task Manager > Performance > GPU
```
### CPU Performance
If using CPU only:
- Smaller models (7b-8b) work better
- Expect 2-5 tokens/second
- Close other applications for better performance
### Faster Response Times
```powershell
# Use smaller models for speed
ollama pull mistral:7b
# Or quantized versions (smaller, faster)
ollama pull llama3.1:8b-q4_0
```
---
## Usage Examples
### Example 1: Private Code Review
```
I have some proprietary code I don't want to send to external APIs.
Can you use the local Ollama model to review it for security issues?
[Paste code]
```
Claude will use `analyze_code_local` to review locally.
### Example 2: Large File Summary
```
Summarize this 50,000 line log file using the local model to avoid API costs.
[Paste content]
```
Claude will use `summarize_large_file` locally.
### Example 3: Offline Development
```
I'm offline - can you still help with this code?
```
Claude will delegate to local Ollama model automatically.
---
## What Models to Use When
| Task | Best Model | Why |
|------|-----------|-----|
| Code review | qwen2.5-coder:7b | Trained specifically for code |
| Code generation | codellama:13b | Best code completion |
| General questions | llama3.1:8b | Balanced performance |
| Speed priority | mistral:7b | Fastest responses |
| Quality priority | llama3.1:70b | Best reasoning (needs GPU) |
---
## Uninstall
To remove the Ollama MCP server:
1. **Remove from `.mcp.json`:**
Delete the `ollama-assistant` entry
2. **Delete files:**
```powershell
Remove-Item -Recurse D:\ClaudeTools\mcp-servers\ollama-assistant
```
3. **Uninstall Ollama (optional):**
```powershell
winget uninstall Ollama.Ollama
```
4. **Restart Claude Code**
---
## Next Steps
Once installed:
1. Try asking me to use local Ollama for tasks
2. I'll automatically delegate when appropriate:
- Privacy-sensitive code
- Large files
- Offline work
- Cost optimization
The integration is transparent - you can work normally and I'll decide when to use local vs. cloud AI.
---
**Status:** Ready to install
**Estimated Setup Time:** 10-15 minutes (including model download)
**Disk Space Required:** ~5-10GB (for models)

- **Code Analysis:** Delegate code review to local model for privacy-sensitive code
- **Data Processing:** Process large local datasets without API costs
- **Offline Work:** Continue working when internet/API is unavailable
- **Cost Optimization:** Use local model for simple tasks, Claude for complex reasoning

## Installation
### 1. Install Ollama
**Windows:**
```powershell
# Download from https://ollama.ai/download
# Or use winget
winget install Ollama.Ollama
```
**Verify Installation:**
```bash
ollama --version
```
### 2. Pull a Model
```bash
# Recommended models:
ollama pull llama3.1:8b # Best balance (4.7GB)
ollama pull codellama:13b # Code-focused (7.4GB)
ollama pull mistral:7b # Fast, good reasoning (4.1GB)

```
### 3. Test Ollama
```bash
ollama run llama3.1:8b "What is MCP?"
```
### 4. Create MCP Server
**File:** `mcp-servers/ollama-assistant/server.py`
```python
#!/usr/bin/env python3

### 5. Install MCP Server Dependencies
```bash
cd D:\ClaudeTools\mcp-servers\ollama-assistant
python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate
pip install mcp httpx
```
### 6. Configure in Claude Code
**Edit:** `.mcp.json` (in D:\ClaudeTools)
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"github": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"],
"env": {
"GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
}
},
"filesystem": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "D:\\ClaudeTools"]
},
"sequential-thinking": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-sequential-thinking"]
},
"ollama-assistant": {
"command": "python",
"args": [
"D:\\ClaudeTools\\mcp-servers\\ollama-assistant\\venv\\Scripts\\python.exe",
"D:\\ClaudeTools\\mcp-servers\\ollama-assistant\\server.py"
]
}
}
}
```
---
## Usage Examples
### Example 1: Ask Ollama for a Second Opinion
```
User: "Review this authentication code for security issues"
Claude: Let me delegate this to the local Ollama model for a privacy-focused review.
[Uses ask_ollama tool]
Ollama: "Found potential issues: 1. Password not hashed... 2. No rate limiting..."
Claude: Based on the local analysis, here are the security concerns...
```
### Example 2: Analyze Large Codebase Locally
```
User: "Analyze this 10,000 line file for performance issues"
Claude: This is large - I'll use the local model to avoid API costs.
[Uses summarize_large_file tool]
Ollama: "Main performance bottlenecks: 1. N+1 queries... 2. Missing indexes..."
Claude: Here's the performance analysis from the local model...
```
### Example 3: Offline Development
```
User: "Help me debug this code" (while offline)
Claude: API unavailable, using local Ollama model...
[Uses analyze_code_local tool]
Ollama: "Bug found on line 42: null reference..."
Claude: The local model identified the issue...
```
---
## Option 2: Standalone Ollama with MCP Tools
Run Ollama as a separate agent with its own MCP server access.
**Architecture:**
```
┌─────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────┐
│ Claude Code │ │ Ollama + MCP │
│ (Main Agent) │────▶│ (Helper Agent) │
└─────────────────┘ └──────────┬──────────┘
│ MCP Protocol
┌──────────────────────┐
│ MCP Servers │
│ - Filesystem │
│ - Bash │
│ - Custom tools │
└──────────────────────┘
```
**Tool:** Use `ollama-mcp` or similar wrapper that gives Ollama access to MCP servers.
---
## Option 3: Hybrid Task Distribution
Use Claude as coordinator, Ollama for execution.
**When to use Ollama:**
- Privacy-sensitive code review
- Large file processing (no token limits)
- Offline work
- Cost optimization (simple tasks)
- Repetitive analysis
**When to use Claude:**
- Complex reasoning
- Multi-step planning
- API integrations
- Final decision-making
- User communication
---
## Recommended Models for Different Tasks
| Task Type | Recommended Model | Size | Reason |
|-----------|------------------|------|--------|
| Code Review | qwen2.5-coder:7b | 4.7GB | Best code understanding |
| Code Generation | codellama:13b | 7.4GB | Trained on code |
| General Queries | llama3.1:8b | 4.7GB | Balanced performance |
| Fast Responses | mistral:7b | 4.1GB | Speed optimized |
| Large Context | llama3.1:70b | 40GB | 128k context (needs GPU) |
---
## Performance Considerations
**CPU Only:**
- llama3.1:8b: ~2-5 tokens/sec
- Usable for short queries
**GPU (NVIDIA):**
- llama3.1:8b: ~30-100 tokens/sec
- codellama:13b: ~20-50 tokens/sec
- Much faster, recommended
**Enable GPU in Ollama:**
```bash
# Ollama auto-detects GPU
# Verify: check Ollama logs for "CUDA" or "Metal"
```
---
## Next Steps
1. Install Ollama
2. Pull a model (llama3.1:8b recommended)
3. Create MCP server (use code above)
4. Configure `.mcp.json`
5. Restart Claude Code
6. Test: "Use the local Ollama model to analyze this code"
