search_ifs_codebase(
  query: "validation logic",           // Main query (fallback for both)
  semantic_query: "business rules",    // For FAISS semantic search
  lexical_query: "Check_Insert___",   // For BM25S exact matching
  max_results: 10,                    // Number of results
  explain: true                       // Include scoring explanations
)

search_ifs_semantic - AI-Powered Understanding

// Pure semantic search using BGE-M3 embeddings

🎯 Intelligent Workflow Example

AI Agent Search Workflow

💬 User: "Find customer credit validation patterns in IFS Cloud"

🧠 AI Agent automatically uses hybrid search:

1️⃣ **Semantic Search** (search_ifs_semantic):
   Query: "customer credit validation business rules"
   → BGE-M3 finds conceptually similar code patterns
   → Returns files with credit checking logic, validation routines

2️⃣ **Lexical Search** (search_ifs_lexical):
   Query: "Customer_API Credit_Limit Check_Credit"
   → BM25S finds exact API names and function calls
   → Returns specific implementation methods

3️⃣ **Hybrid Fusion** (search_ifs_codebase):
   Semantic: "credit validation patterns"
   Lexical: "Customer_API.Check_Credit___"
   → FlashRank combines both approaches intelligently
   → PageRank boosts important foundation files

✅ Result: Comprehensive understanding across:
   - Business logic patterns (semantic)
   - Exact API implementations (lexical)
   - Architectural importance (PageRank)
   - Perfect architectural consistency!

🤖 AI Intent Classification Models

The server uses FastAI models for intelligent query classification. Models are automatically downloaded from GitHub releases when first needed:

# Models download automatically, but you can also:

# Download manually
uv run python -m src.ifs_cloud_mcp_server.model_downloader

# Train your own model (optional)
uv run python scripts/train_proper_fastai.py

# Prepare model for release (maintainers)
uv run python scripts/prepare_model_release.py

Model Details:

• Size: ~121MB (FastAI ULMFiT model)
• Storage: Downloaded from GitHub releases (not in repo)
• Fallback: Graceful degradation if model unavailable
• GPU Support: Automatic CUDA detection and acceleration
